Abstract

This paper outlines an approach used within a road authority to improve management of its assets, and to achieve delivery of its $2B per annum works program. The philosophical basis for this work draws on the following five management types: asset, project, program, portfolio/business and organisational/corporate. A bottom up approach is taken to explain the development of each of the asset, project, program, portfolio/business and organisational/corporate management models into an integrated organisational model for Main Roads. A top down approach then provides the strategic approach to management of the content, which in this case, is a network of road assets.
