Sažetak
In the forthcoming decades, many objects in
transport infrastructure networks will come to the end
of their technical, economical or functional lifespan.
The replacement and renovation will require substantial budgets and a timely start to secure the current
functionalities. These challenges are a main concern for
asset managers. However, the replacement programmes
also have the opportunity not only to maintain the currently needed functionalities and quality but also for the
timely adaptation of infrastructure networks to changing
demands, because these will determine the value of these
networks in the future. This will give added value not only
to asset managers, but also to users (e.g. increased functionality), enterprises (e.g. new business opportunities),
stakeholders (e.g. increase of liveability) and society as a
whole (e.g. increased sustainability). Each replacement
and renovation is an opportunity to make infrastructure networks more fit for future economic and environmental needs. This means a shift in thinking for asset
managers to a broader view. This paper proposes strategies for asset managers to cope with the challenges and
opportunities. The traditional approach focuses on the
delivery, but the key for the replacement and renovation
programme is to focus on the whole life cycle through life
cycle management (LCM). From the LCM-approach, four
perspectives are presented to strategic decision-making
on replacements and renovations: (1) broadening towards
a network approach as an opportunity for redesign, (2)
developing innovations for increasing requirements and
budget restrictions, (3) realizing adaptive networks to
cope with future challenges and (4) combining functionalities to increase added value. Ultimately the goal is to
maximize value for society
