Dedicated Asset Investment Planning Stream

11:30 Asset Investment Planning at South Staffs Water: From Strategy to Standard
South Staffs Water partnered with Copperleaf to optimise investment decisions, balance costs, manage risks, and align with strategic goals, including regulatory requirements. The company is on a journey to embed Asset Investment Planning (AIP) as an enterprise-wide discipline and tool, leveraging the Copperleaf solution to streamline decision-making and create sustainable value across the organisation. This session will offer insights into their vision of making AIP “business as usual”— from engaging senior stakeholders to achieving enterprise-wide adoption.

Speaker:
Andrew Smith, Senior Asset Management Analyst, South Staffs Water

12:00 End-to-End Risk Management – United Utilities
Organizations across various industries often struggle with managing and mitigating risk over time. Fragmented risk management processes can create a disconnect between operational and strategic initiatives.
By establishing a comprehensive view of risks and mitigation strategies, you can:
Reduce your organization’s overall risk exposure
Gain strategic insights into how your risk profile evolves
Having a single source of truth for capturing, assessing, and addressing risks drives alignment from decision-makers to on-the-ground operations.

Speaker:
Dave Lamb, Industrial Strategy Manager, United Utilities

12:30 Lunch
14:00 From Data to Intelligence – Driving Informed Decision Making with Ease – National Highways
Infrastructure organisations have a habit and ability of collating loads of data. Transforming this data into valuable, digestible and contextual Information has become a challenge. Copperleaf provides value-driven solutions that allow such organisations to easily aggregate, mine, collate and present this sea of data in an intelligible manner allowing proper, fact-based decision making.
The session will explore the benefits of using Copperleaf for both Value Based Portfolio Management of the Capital Programme and Strategic planning of the renewals activities across the UK’s Strategic Road Network.

Speaker:
Mohammed Sikander, National Highways
