Abstract
Infrastructure has become a major preoccupation for many countries around the world. Developed countries, such as Canada, face the challenge of maintaining their existing stocks of water, wastewater, roads, bridges, and other systems that support economic growth and help maintain the quality of life of their citizens. Meanwhile, developing countries are in the process of building their infrastructure systems to provide basicservices to their people. Asset management is not new to infrastructure, having been first applied with pavement management systems more than 20 years ago. Today, the principles of asset managementhave been expanded and applied to all municipal infrastructure assets.
