Are you looking for a self-assessment tool to help you assess your community's current asset management practices? The Asset Management Readiness Scale helps municipalities understand where they are starting from so they can adopt business practices that support better decisions about investing in infrastructure assets like roads, buildings and waste water systems. FCM's readiness scale is a tool you can use at all stages to identify where you can improve your asset management practices over time.

The readiness scale helps you to:

Asset Management Readiness Scale
