Asset Management in Guelph

Circular flow chart showing sustainable service delivery. Assess, Plan, Implement.

Corporate Asset Management (CAM) planning is the process used to help make the best possible decisions regarding the building, operating, renewing, replacing and disposing of infrastructure assets.

The planning and development process provides a clear, detailed picture of our assets, needs and priorities, which plays a very important role in the development of the City of Guelph’s Mult-Year Budget.

The CAM Plan is part of the City’s overall CAM Program designed to enable the management of infrastructure assets in a way that connects strategic community objectives to day-to-day decisions related to when, why and how investments are made in infrastructure systems.  

In June 2018, Council approved the City’s Asset Management Policy. This policy commits to strategic alignment between the services our assets deliver and the City’s Strategic Plan.

Asset Management Dashboard

The CAM team provides regular annual updates on the value, condition, and levels of service of the City’s infrastructure assets to council. The information provided to council is summarized using a business insights (BI) dashboard for quick reference throughout the year. This dashboard provides a high-level accessible overview of the City’s infrastructure portfolio and the forecasted performance over the next ten years including future condition, funding levels.
