- People Dying

## Strategies to Close the Infrastructure Sustainability Gap

- Top Down:
- Efficiency and optimization
- Innovations
- Restructuring
- Bottom Up:
- Demand side management

## Infrastructure Strategy Map

## IMLC Structure

## Enabling Technology

## The Technology Platform

## The Window of Opportunity is Now

- Efficiencies must be achieved to reduce the impact of insufficient funding
- Systems must be able to support growth
- Advanced asset lifecycle management can achieve considerable savings, improve infrastructure sustainability and provide a strategic advantage.
- Alternative funding frees capital for other investments.
- Alternative service delivery methods gives you the freedom to focus on other business initiatives.

**Economies of scale, advanced asset lifecycle management, and infrastructure sustainability will benefit all stakeholders**.
