Newark OH, USA
The Harfan/Malcolm Pirnie Team demonstrated its expertise in combining municipal infrastructure assessment, rehabilitation, planning, and design activities with a complete analysis of related capital and operating costs and utility funding alternatives.

The area study included 150 manholes and analysed buried infrastructure networks (water and wastewater) to develop a comprehensive system wide analysis, resulting in the production of an Integrated Capital Improvement Plan (ICIP). Demonstrating its ability to get accurate results from a minimal set of data, the processed information was extracted exclusively from already existing sources and no field surveys had to be conducted.

With the objective of rehabilitating the water, sewer, road and steam networks, this area study consisted of producing a mid to long term Integrated Capital Improvement Plan (ICIP), complete with a condition assessment of the studied assets. It enabled DND to strategically plan their asset repair & replace programs while acknowledging specific technical, operational and budgetary considerations.  MORE 
 

City of Hamilton, ON, CAN
Looking for a way to integrate its capital investment decision-making processes for roads, water and sewers, the Harfan/Dillon teamed carried out, for the City of Hamilton, an area study of a four-square kilometre downtown area.

Computing already available data information, an analysis was carried out using Harfan's Infrastructure Management Approach (HIMATM). The final report suggested integrated strategies for future capital investments in rehabilitation, repair and replacement of the City’s infrastructures. The results have since then been used for budget presentations to City Council.  MORE 
 

City of Moncton, NB, CAN
The Harfan/Dillon team services were retained to examine the City's infrastructure needs and the costs related with rehabilitating or replacing portions of the water distribution network. The project also aimed at identifying viable alternatives to maximize both service factors and life cycle costs, while optimizing the financial position of the water utility.

Thanks to HIMA^tm, the City of Moncton now maintains a solid database (depicted graphically in GIS format), including records of activities and a hydraulic model of the network. The final report included a remedial action plan for each system component, and a provision forecast for a 20-year outlook, complete with prioritized work schedule projections, including cost estimates.  MORE
