Implementation Roadmap Summary with recommended future initiatives including a schedule, and resource requirements for each item. The Roadmap Summary will be incorporated into the AM Policy Document. Task 6— CONDITION ASSESSMENT AND RISK METHODOLOGY DEVELOPMENT To jump start the AM Program implementation, risk based decision making for aboveground assets will be implemented immediately, since it is an obvious gap that exists today. This task consists of workshops to determine the methodologies for condition and risk assessment for aboveground assets. The CONSULTANT will present the basic concepts behind assessment and guide the discussion related to scoring for each component of a condition and risk assessment. Examples from other local utilities will be introduced and the group will come to consensus. The resulting methods and draft SOP will be used for the Pilot area to provide proof of concept. Once the Pilot is completed the SOP will be revised for application to all future condition and risk assessments at above -ground facilities ensuring that all assets can be equally compared in the capital improvement replacement selection process. 6.1 Workshop 1— Asset hierarchy and definitions: The CONSULTANT will conduct a full day workshop to create an effective asset hierarchy for above ground assets that can support finding assets to write work orders, reporting of information and support defining what is the lowest level in the hierarchy, or the asset definition. Asset definition and hierarchy examples from other organizations will be introduced. 6.2 Workshop 2 — Asset Attributes: The CONSULTANT will conduct a half day workshop to establish the minimum set of attributes that should be collected for all aboveground assets to facilitate condition and risk assessment and support capital planning. Examples will be provided for similar asset types from other utilities and the existing level of data available in the IRCDUS CMMS or other IT systems will be discussed in terms of prioritizing efforts to collect missing data. 6.3 Workshop 3 — Condition Assessment: The CONSULTANT will conduct a full day workshop to establish the methodology and scoring definitions for physical condition and performance condition of aboveground assets based on industry best practices. The methodology will involve visual and desktop assessments to assess each of the potential failure modes of mortality, level of service, and efficiency failures. Examples from other utilities will be provided for discussion. 6.4 Useful Life and Replacement Costs: The CONSULTANT will hold informal meetings with the appropriate work teams to establish an effective useful life table covering the asset types for the aboveground assets owned by IRCDUS. An example table from Florida utilities will be presented as a starting point. Page - 6 INDIAN RIVER COUNTY UTILITIES ASSET MANAGEMENT PROGRAM SERVICES Pill
