Like most utilities worldwide, the scale of their\u00a0 aging infrastructure exceeds funding available to replace it. Given the challenging nature of water and wastewater assets, a lack of visibility into asset health is a risk. An Infrastructure Technology Plan can address these challenges. It helps identify and prioritise fit-for-purpose technology to move towards predicting asset condition and enabling proactive, cost-effective interventions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Isle was well placed to pair global leading practices with a deep assessment of Sydney Water\u2019s current technology capabilities. This resulted in a comprehensive Infrastructure Technology Plan and Implementation Roadmap. Together, these align the business on key infrastructure technology initiatives to prioritise over the next 1 \u2013 5 year time horizon. The approach ensures optimal resource allocation and targets high-value opportunities while managing risk and implementation readiness.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Benefits of
