You Can’t Manage What You Don’t Model: Capital Predictor™ for Asset Management Planning

December 1 @ 2 PM ET / 11 AM PT

According to the American Society of Civil Engineers, there are two important ways to raise America’s Infrastructure Report Card above a D+ GPA: 1) develop and maintain infrastructure ratings at the local level and 2) develop and increase dedicated funding plans. Not surprisingly, these are also the areas that pose the biggest challenges to utility infrastructure owners and operators.

Join our webinar on Tuesday, December 1 to learn tactics to help you improve your asset management processes. You will hear from both Seth Robertson and Eddie Staley of WithersRavenel on:

The current state of public infrastructure and potential funding opportunities, including a variety of grants and low-interest loans, to help close financial gaps
The data and tools necessary for developing an effective Asset Management and Capital Improvement Plan
Best practices honed through the development of multiple asset management plans for water, sewer, stormwater and pavements
How the City of Sanford, NC developed a plan to address aging infrastructure, including a funding strategy optimized for their preferred rehabilitation methodologies

We look forward to seeing you there!
