Elevate Your Capital Planning With AssetAdvanced

Competing priorities and manual planning make it difficult to determine which projects matter most. The AssetAdvanced program provides clarity, helping you transform water infrastructure data into confident, long term investment decisions.

As a water utility, you face a critical challenge: making smart investment decisions amid a growing number of competing priorities. You must address aging infrastructure while meeting evolving regulatory requirements, enhance service to your communities while ensuring employee safety and well-being, and balance numerous programs within constrained budgets. Determining which projects to advance—and when—can be difficult. Traditional planning approaches often rely on fragmented data and manual processes, limiting the ability to prioritize effectively. AssetAdvanced addresses this challenge by transforming complex data into clear, actionable investment strategies.

Integrating Master Plans Using Project Prioritization Software

The City of Atlanta’s Department of Watershed Management needed to integrate three major master plans—water, wastewater, and stormwater—under strict budget constraints heightened by the pandemic. Using the AssetAdvanced Program Scheduling software, the team combined project data, budget limits, and triple bottom line and risk reduction criteria to evaluate potential CIP investments. The model identified an optimized 10 year plan that delivered the highest benefits while staying under budget, enabling transparent, data driven project selection and supporting Atlanta’s transition to a consistent, 5 year rolling CIP.
