Towards effective asset management improving operation and maintenance of a water distribution system through better information management practices: cases of Abuja, Nigeria and K... by Roses Enang

“…Lessons from KW and the literature showed that FCTWB has the potential to achieve better asset management within the current operating environment by capitalising on its existing IM and O&M practices without making major changes to the organisational structure because asset management is best improved in an incremental way while sufficient IT and other resources become available.…”
