Decision Analysis for Drainage Operation & Maintenance
Ø INTRODUCTION |
Efficient information management is key to better decision-making in drainage asset management. Asset managers are required to assess critically their agency's operating environment and its competency. Moreover, they are required to make difficult decisions that have long-term and often critical consequences for their agency and/or stakeholders; decision-support tools will improve the accuracy and the soundness of their decisions. This IACT training course will feature: l Breaking a problem down into its constituent parts or components, in the framework of a hierarchy l Establishing importance or priority to rank the alternatives is a comprehensive & general way to look at the problem in a formal manner l Application of multi criteria decision-making (MCDM) to practical problems in drainage network l Introduction to different operational research & management science methods l Enhance decision-making with goals and criteria about drainage operation issues & show how to measure and rank them |
Ø Objectives |
At this program's conclusion, participants should be able to: l Improve productivity through use of better, timelier information l Understand how world-class organisations solve common asset management problems about drainage operation issues l Optimise planning and scheduling resources, carry out optimised failure analyses in drainage operation issues l Optimise asset management budgets by avoidance of unplanned equipment failures in service l Develop a practical approach of an action plan to utilise these technologies in their own areas of responsibility
