Recommendation 42

Incentivise improvements in asset management across the public sector

Recommendation

42. Incentivise improvements in asset management across the public sector by:

  1. introducing a new budget allocation for state agencies and government trading enterprises to implement fit for purpose asset management planning, capability building and systems
  2. establishing an asset lifecycle investment fund, or similar incentive mechanism, to reward good asset management practice and support funding submissions that demonstrate strong alignment with service delivery outcomes and optimised asset use.
