Future Development Needs In Asset Management – The World Bank’s Perspective

The World Bank is playing, and has historically played, an important role in development in the road asset management sector. We are involved in supporting our partner countries in most of the relevant activities normally captioned under asset management; from data collection; data analysis; maintenance delivery as well as the reforms needed to make it all work. The Bank’s engagement in the sector can among others been seen from our role in developing HDM, a cornerstone in many asset management systems (especially in the developing world) as well as in the successful adoption of performance based maintenance in many countries.
