Asset Management Communities of Practice Guide

Asset management planning can bring great benefits to municipalities across Ontario, including enhanced long-term financial planning and decision making as well as meeting potential eligibility requirements for senior government funding. However, many municipalities are challenged with limited resources, training, and experience in this field of practice. Networks for knowledge sharing among practitioners, or communities of practice, have the potential to provide valuable opportunities for the ongoing sharing of best practices in the field of asset management. 

This Guide was prepared by MFOA, with the support of the Province of Ontario, to provide practical recommendations for the development of asset management communities of practice.  The Guide is intended to assist municipal staff in developing and maintaining their own communities of practice to best meet their needs.

This project was funded in part by the Government of Ontario.
