Assumptions &
Constraints
This AMAP was developed with several assumptions and it's limitations were led by some internal & external constraints
Assumptions
- We assume our current source of funding will continue or increase modestly
- We assume our current level of asset management funding will not decrease
- We assume our current level of asset management will improve
Internal Constraints
- We are limited in our ability to hire additional staff and must implement our AMAP within our existing capabilities
External Constraints
We must work with Statuatory Bodies, Ministries and Local Government, and Central Government for assets that are used by our community but managed by the Belize City Council
Belize City Council
has not developed an
Asset Management Policy framework
Asset Management Policy Framework
The following main
Objectives guided our AMAP
analysis, priorities and actions
Objectives
- Having Community Focus
- Taking a life cycle management approach
- Having a focus on service
- Being compliant
- Being Transparent
- Being resource-efficient
- Adopting a sustainable approach
The reasoning behind this selection is based on the importance of the asset to the local government and the stakeholders and the impact on those stakeholders should the asset fail and fall out of service
