Sustainable Infrastructure Assets: Capability for Infrastructure Capacity Management
2010
Building for a sustainable environment requires sustainable infrastructure assets. Infrastructure capacity
management is the process of ensuring optimal provision of such infrastructure assets. Effectiveness in
this process will enable the infrastructure asset owners and its stakeholders to receive full value on their
investment. Business research has shown that an organisation can only achieve business value when it
has the right capabilities. This paradigm can also be applied to infrastructure capacity management.
With limited access to resources, the challenge for infrastructure organisations is to identify and develop
core capabilities to enable infrastructure capacity management. This chapter explores the concept of
capability and identifies the core capability needed in infrastructure capacity management. Through a
case study of the Port of Brisbane, this chapter shows that infrastructure organisations must develop
their intelligence gathering capability to effectively manage the capacity of their infrastructure assets.
