18-28 Bay Venues Ltd Asset Management Plan Page 8 of 143 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This executive summary provides an overview for the Board of Directors, senior managers, financial and corporate planners on the key philosophies guiding asset management, whilst identifying key issues including service levels, trends and risks as well as financial implications.
WHO WE ARE AND WHAT WE DO
Bay Venues Limited (BVL) was set up by Tauranga City Council (TCC) as a limited liability council- controlled organisation (CCO) on 1 July 2013 by merging two existing CCOs Tauranga City Venues Limited (TCVL) and Tauranga City Aquatics Limited (TCAL). TCC has tasked BVL to achieve efficiencies in operating costs whilst maintaining fit for purpose facilities and opportunities with no reduction in the level of service currently available.
BVL’s Vision and purpose, contained in the 2018 Strategic Plan is as follows: “Enriching Tauranga for everyone. We are the Kaitiaki. We care for and optimise our community facilities to create value for Tauranga City and enhance the quality of life of its people, now and into the future”. BVL’s core business is venue ownership and management, and the operation of venues based businesses, programmes and services including events. Our facilities include Baypark Stadium and Arena, Aquatic Venues, Indoor Recreation Venues, Community Halls and Centres and the University of Waikato Adams Centre for High Performance (Adams Centre). In order to achieve our purpose BVL has prepared a core Asset Management Plan, which is summarised below.
PURPOSE OF ASSET MANAGEMENT PLAN
The Asset Management Plan (AMP) represents BVL’s tactical plans for managing its assets cost- effectively and responsibly for present and future generations. An example of tactics is to consider reviewing asset performance and how each venue fits into the companies long term strategies.
It provides a document for all BVL and TCC staff as a guide on how our assets should be managed and what legislative requirements there are under the Local Government Act (LGA).
This AMP also identifies various levels of risk to BVL and TCC and what actions should be considered in mitigating any risk. Risks to business and computer systems, health and safety and natural disasters are addressed later in the document.
OUR GOALS, OBJECTIVES AND LEVELS OF SERVICE
BVL has five strategic pillars which support our vision and purpose. The Facilities pillar focuses on asset management through the following objectives:
Every facility is well looked after, well maintained and well-presented,
Every facility provides a safe environment for staff and visitors
The potential of our current facilities is optimised
To propose and develop new facilities to meet future needs of the community.
18-28 Bay Venues Ltd Asset Management Plan Page 9 of 143 TCC has identified, through its Letter of Expectation to BVL that it funds BVL to deliver community- related outcomes, which apply to all activities that are considered to have a community focus, under the following three areas: Accessibility - our community facilities must be: maximised for a variety of purposes, responsive to community needs, and as accessible to as many people from Tauranga City as possible. Levels of Service - our community facilities must be safe, welcoming, and well maintained, while delivering customer-focused service, to ensure positive experiences and high levels of satisfaction for the community. Programmes and Services - our community facilities must be optimised through the delivery of a range of programmes and services in order to help off-set operating costs, fill underutilised spaces, and provide positive community outcomes.
Levels of service (LoS) are key business drivers, which influence all asset management decisions. The term "level of service" has a particular meaning in asset management. The National Asset Management Steering (NAMS) Group defines levels of service as the descriptions of the service output for a particular activity or service area. Customer values and demands provide the cornerstone to the development of LoS from both a customer and technical point of view. The customer values and key factors driving demand for BVL activities are as follows:
Types of venues
Quantity of venues
Quality of venues
Accessibility of venues
Affordability of facilities and services
Services and activities provided
Awareness of facilities and services offering
Social benefits to the whole community
Cultural appropriateness of offerings
Social trends towards recreation
Efficiency / Sustainability
Health & Safety
Reliability / Responsiveness. LoS statements become meaningful when they are assessed by measuring and monitoring performance and linking them with specific community outcomes.
GROWTH AND DEMAND IMPACTING ON OUR ASSETS AND ACTIVITIES Projected growth and anticipated trends in demand patterns will affect future demand for BVL assets and asset-related services. The key drivers influencing the growth and demand on BVL assets are summarised below:
Population projections (growth)
Residential, commercial and industrial development – increasing development will increase local populations. This may also increase competition.
Tourism – cruise ships particularly are increasing every year. It is common during cruise season to see a number of ‘cruisers’ at the Hot Pools. 18-28 Bay Venues Ltd Asset Management Plan Page 10 of 143 Changes in technology and community expectations – need to stay abreast and respond accordingly.
Climate change – particularly at Baywave, Hot Pools and Memorial Pool, weather greatly affects visits at these venues.
Public and environmental health – Increased publicity around obesity in New Zealand is leading to uptake in various indoor and outdoor activities. Larger venues use a high amount of resources for example water and electricity. How can we minimise this as well as waste?
BVL charging and tariffs – how will increasing prices affect visitors?
Service provider (City Waters, Power, Telecommunications etc.) charging and tariffs
Legislative changes and requirements
Resource consent requirements – Consider finite resources such as geothermal water supply.
Need for quality improvements.
Tauranga has been experiencing a sustained period of rapid growth. Statistics New Zealand subnational population estimates for Tauranga indicate the population grew by 11.9% from 2006 to 2013 to a total population of 119,800 in 20131. A range of organisations provide population projections for Tauranga, all indicate significant growth and changes in the age profile of Tauranga’s population. Smartgrowth projections are that the population of Tauranga was 117,280 in 2013 and will be 161,646 by 20332
Demand is about who is currently using BVL facilities, and who potentially wants to use them. As such the current level of use, pattern of use, profile of use and the desired level of use have been analysed as part of the asset management process. Across the network of BVL managed facilities hours of use and user visits have shown consistent increases since BVL was established in 2013. Over the period hours of use have increased from over 75,000 hours in 2013/14 to over 97,000 hours in 2016/17 (28% increase) and user visits have increased from 1.6 million in 2013/14 to 1.9 million in 2016/17 (23% increase).
Existing data has been analysed and identified the following key trends for the future:
Some demand will be created by population growth
The greatest increase in demand is likely to occur in peak times, as traditional sporting and community structures create peak demand pressures (early mornings, evenings and weekends).
People want recreational facilities located close to where they live and work
An aging population and increasing ethnic diversity will lead to demands for different types of activities
The community increasingly seeks tailored programmes, rather than just the passive use of facilities
Changes and increases in demand will be managed through a combination of non-asset solutions and asset creation.
In the first instance non-asset solutions are sought. These include:
Changing the hours of use to cater for additional demand. For example: have longer opening hours

18-28 Bay Venues Ltd Asset Management Plan Page 11 of 143 Discount incentives to promote the use of the network of facilities. For example: users of Aquatic Facilities can use other facilities at discounted prices to encourage and spread demand
Promotion of alternative venues to spread the demand. For example, the Baywave Aquatic Centre promotes Greerton Aquatic Centre (or vice versa) to lane swimmers in order to reduce and spread the demand during peak periods. The Baypark Arena promotes the Queen Elizabeth Youth Centre (QEYC) to events or community uses which cannot be accommodated within the Arena (and vice versa)
Promotion of inter departmental benefits. For example learn to swim offerings to tumble time customers; Clubfit offerings to aquatic members; venue or programme discount vouchers as prizes for sports leagues
Where non-asset solutions are insufficient, new assets will be created.
OUR ASSET BASE
ASSET REGISTER
BVL uses the TCC managed asset software system Accela. TCC went live with Accela through a staged implementation from October 2012 – December 2014, BVL went live in December 2014. Accela uses information merged from previous asset management systems (Confirm, SPM and Hansen). Information is now consolidated in the one system for BVL assets, and work is ongoing to continually improve the data integrity at BVL Venues. This register of assets excludes ‘whole assets’ such as a building and is broken down into assets within the building such as roof, floor, heating systems, etc. All BVL assets (excluding IT and vehicles) are included in this system. Some work is required to confirm the quality and completeness of the asset data in this system.
ASSET VALUATION
Statutory financial reporting requires BVL to revalue its fixed assets at least every five years. The asset valuation is used for asset management (calculating long-term asset renewal projections), identifying loss of service potential (depreciation) and for financial reporting purposes.
OUR CHALLENGE
Our customers use our facilities on a daily basis, and as our communities grow, increased pressure is placed on BVL’s existing asset base. A strategic planning approach is needed given the large operational and capital expenditure expected during the long lives of the assets, and the lead times in planning for upgrades, replacements and the creation of new assets.
The following significant issues need to be considered when managing BVL assets:
Data integrity
Age, deterioration of assets and associated timing of the required level of investment to maintain, renew and replace existing assets
Significant public interface requiring a high level of maintenance to manage risks to ensure the health and safety of the public and mitigate any adverse effects on the environment
Ensuring appropriate facility maintenance is achieved, whilst maintaining public access through a minimum of facility closures
Reducing high operating costs and increasing sustainability (energy efficient, water saving, minimise waste).
18-28 Bay Venues Ltd Asset Management Plan Page 12 of 143 HOW WE MANAGE OUR ASSETS
RISK MANAGEMENT
The objective of risk management is to identify the specific business risks, together with any possible risks to the health and safety of employees, other contractors and the general public, associated with the ownership and management of the assets.
The current risk management practice focuses on the threats to the activities only. The key risk areas identified across the BVL activities include:
Health and Safety incidents – worker or contractor actions or inactions contribute to a fatality, serious injury or illness of a customer, worker or contractor.
Successful computer cyber-attack – causing infected computer data, destruction or corruption of data or exposure of sensitive, private or confidential data.
Natural disaster event – causing damage to assets
Interest rate increases quicker or higher than anticipated by TCC – leading to increased costs and failure to meet budget expectations
Key asset failure – failure of pipe infrastructure
Failure or major disruption to key business systems – directly impacting on service delivery or ability to capture and access key information
Water borne parasitic contamination outbreak – causing serious illness and possibly death in multiple victims
As part of the risk management process a detailed risk register and action plan has been prepared in consultation with key staff and the Asset & Projects Manager. This is included in Appendix 1. This is a living document, which is updated when new risks are identified and/or actions have been monitored or measured.
SUSTAINABILITY
BVL aims to ensure, that the facilities are managed sustainably to create value for the people of Tauranga now and into the future. Sustainability is about bringing together and balancing the planning and delivery of services across the social, cultural, economic and environmental well-beings at the same time. This is achieved by getting the most positive improvement for the well-beings when making decisions, while at the same time minimising the negative effects.
LIFE CYCLE MANAGEMENT
Life cycle management (LCM) describes the process of managing the entire life span of an asset, from the planning process through its development and useful life. For BVL, LCM is also about making life cycle thinking and sustainability front of mind with operational staff to achieve continuous improvement. The LCM strategies are divided into the three work categories as shown in the Figure 1 below.
18-28 Bay Venues Ltd Asset Management Plan Page 13 of 143 Figure 1: BVL Lifecycle Management Categories
Lifecycle Management Categories
Operations & Development Renewal Maintenance Works
Proactive Reactive Replacement Rehabilitation Creation Disposal Maintenance Maintenance
TCC / BVL Externally Private Public Funded Funded Partnerships
The components of LCM categories are: Asset Operations: The active process of utilising an asset, which will consume resources such as manpower, energy and materials. Operations include routine inspections and testing to monitor asset condition and identify the need for maintenance and repair work. Asset Maintenance: The on-going day-to-day work activity required to keep assets serviceable and prevent premature deterioration or failure. Two categories of maintenance are carried out:
Proactive (Planned) Maintenance: Work carried out to a predetermined schedule or programmed period as a result of identified needs (e.g. repairs of faults of a more significant nature, but which do not pose a hazard). Planned maintenance includes:
- Preventative Maintenance Scheduled Inspections Condition assessment Recording and comparing of condition and performance data Greasing and lubrication of mechanical equipment
- Predictive Maintenance Vibration Analysis on mechanical equipment Condition data analysis
- Programmed Maintenance Repairs of faults that do not require immediate attention or have been temporarily fixed under Unplanned Maintenance Work in response to needs identified during routine inspections
Preventative maintenance aims to extend asset lives to maximise the return on capital investment. Predictive maintenance utilises indicators to forecast maintenance, repair and renewal needs. Programmed maintenance aims to minimise disruption of services while reinstating an asset to its full capacity; this frequently includes the replacement of assets or asset components.
Reactive (Unplanned) Maintenance: Work carried out in response to reported problems or defects. Unplanned maintenance is triggered by asset or service failure and frequently applies a temporary solution to reinstate a service. Once the service is restored, the remaining work is frequently carried out under programmed maintenance. Asset Renewal: Major work that restores an asset to its original capacity or the required condition. Asset Development: The creation of new assets or works which upgrade or improve an existing asset beyond its existing capacity or performance in response to changes in demand, customer expectations and legal requirements.
18-28 Bay Venues Ltd Asset Management Plan Page 14 of 143 Asset Disposal: Disposal is any activity associated with the removal and/or abandonment of a decommissioned asset. Assets may become surplus to requirements for any of the following reasons:
Under utilisation
Obsolescence
Provision exceeds required level of service
Asset no longer provides the service or fulfils the purpose for which it was intended
Uneconomic to upgrade, operate or repair
Policy change
Service provided by other means (e.g. private sector involvement)
Potential risk of ownership (financial, environmental, legal, social, vandalism).

18-28 Bay Venues Ltd Asset Management Plan Page 16 of 143 At this time BVL have the following plans regarding the future disposal of BVL assets:
House at 50 Miro Street – remove or demolish in the short to medium term, subject to a business case for alternative use of the site
PSRC gym equipment – due to the closure of the gym, the majority of the equipment will be sold in 2018. Some items may be retained for relocation to other venues in the BVL network. BVL will also dispose of assets that become obsolete as a result of the renewal and upgrade programme.
OUR PLANS TO IMPROVE
Most organisations put a great deal of effort into the improvement of their assets, while a lesser amount is exerted on improving the planning, business processes and information systems that support the management of the assets. As a result, the improvements they carry out may not result in an optimum solution. The purpose of the Improvement Plan is to identify, develop and implement asset management processes. The improvement tasks include:
The provision of an Asset Management Policy promoting asset management as part of BVL organizational culture.
The cycle of AMP monitoring, review, revision and audit to improve the effectiveness of AMP outputs and compliance with audit criteria, legislative requirements and best appropriate practice.
The definition of service standards reflecting community outcomes through public consultation. The AMP is used to identify service level options and costs, and the delivery of services is a key objective of asset management planning.
Identify and prioritise ways to cost-effectively improve the quality of the AMP, and, therefore, decision making and service delivery.

1.1.1 The Place Tauranga is the largest city of the Bay of Plenty region in the North Island of New Zealand. It lies 205 km south-east of Auckland, 105 km east of Hamilton and 85 km north of Rotorua. The City of Tauranga includes the major suburbs/areas of Tauranga Central (The Avenues), Matua, Tauriko, Otumoetai, Bethlehem, Greerton, Papamoa, Ohauiti, Maungatapu and Welcome Bay.
Figure 2: Map of Tauranga
1.1.2 The Natural Environment and Climate The area of the City is 13,380 hectares. Tauranga is built around its hills and harbours. The landscape is dominated by the harbour, long white sand beaches, the Kaimai mountain ranges to the west and the volcanic cone of Mauao. Tauranga has an average temperature of 14.4ºC with about 2350 sunshine hours per year. In recent year’s Tauranga has experienced more frequent extreme weather events and average rainfall has increased to 1426 mm per annum.
1.1.3 Economy Tauranga is positioned at the centre of the Western Bay of Plenty economy and strongly supports the upper North Island economy with a high tonnage port facility and efficient connections to trading partners in the Waikato and Auckland. Tauranga also provides a large number of secondary industry benefits to locally based export business and industry based in Tauranga and the Western Bay of Plenty.
The average annual percentage of economic growth has been 2.5% in Tauranga over the last decade, compared to 1.9% nationally. Manufacturing, health-care and construction are well- established in the local economy and make the highest contribution to local GDP. Retail and wholesale trade have also been significant growth contributors over the last ten years.
18-28 Bay Venues Ltd Asset Management Plan Page 19 of 143 The Port of Tauranga is the largest export port in New Zealand and growth is projected to continue with it being the only port in New Zealand able to take “mega-ships”. Container volumes through Port of Tauranga are projected to double by 2025. Efficient access to the Port is a key economic driver for the city.
1.1.4 People and Population Statistics NZ estimates for the Tauranga indicate the population was 119,800 as at 30 June 2013. Tauranga is experiencing a period of rapid growth with population estimated by Statistics NZ as 131,500 in 20173. Whilst starting at a slightly lower 2013 estimate (117,283) SmartGrowth projections indicate population will increase to 161,646 by 2033 and 196,014 by 20634. Predictions are that the population over 65 years of age will increase from approximately 20% to over 30% by 2033. Some interesting statistics regarding Tauranga’s population from the 2013 census include:
17.1% identify themselves as Māori – higher than the national average of 14.9%. Many Māori are affiliated to one of three main iwi – Ngai Te Rangi, Ngāti Ranginui and Ngāti Pūkenga. This is the 8th highest Māori population in the 67 districts on New Zealand.
The median age for Tauranga was 41 compared to a median age of 38 for the New Zealand population
The median personal income level in Tauranga was $27,100 lower than the New Zealand median of $28,500
19.3% are aged 65 years and over – significantly higher than the 14.3% of the total New Zealand population.
35.9% of all families are couples with children - significantly lower than the 45.4% of the total New Zealand population.
1.2 BVL at a Glance Bay Venues Limited (BVL) was set up by Tauranga City Council (TCC) as a limited liability council- controlled organisation (CCO) on 1 July 2013 by merging two existing CCOs Tauranga City Venues Limited (TCVL) and Tauranga City Aquatics Limited (TCAL). TCC has tasked BVL to achieve efficiencies in operating costs whilst maintaining fit for purpose facilities and opportunities with no reduction in the level of service currently available.
BVL’s Vision and purpose, contained in the 2018 Strategic Plan is as follows: “Enriching Tauranga for everyone. We are the Kaitiaki. We care for and optimise our community facilities to create value for Tauranga City and enhance the quality of life of its people, now and into the future”. BVL’s core business is venue ownership and management, and the operation of venues based businesses, programmes and services including events. Our facilities include Baypark Stadium and Arena, Aquatic Venues, Indoor Recreation Venues, Community Halls and Centres and the University of Waikato Adams Centre for High performance (Adams Centre). Along with the facilities BVL owns it also manages six venues which are owned by TCC or schools. These venues are not included in this AMP as they are not BVL assets. They are covered by the relevant TCC or school AMP.
TCC has identified, through its Letter of Expectation to BVL that it funds BVL to deliver community- related outcomes, which apply to all activities that are considered to have a community focus, under

18-28 Bay Venues Ltd Asset Management Plan Page 20 of 143 the following three areas: Accessibility - our community facilities must be: maximised for a variety of purposes, responsive to community needs, and as accessible to as many people from Tauranga City as possible. Levels of Service - our community facilities must be safe, welcoming, and well maintained, while delivering customer-focused service, to ensure positive experiences and high levels of satisfaction for the community. Programmes and Services - our community facilities must be optimised through the delivery of a range of programmes and services in order to help off-set operating costs, fill underutilised spaces, and provide positive community outcomes. By achieving in these areas we will make a significant contribution to Tauranga being a community of vibrant, healthy and actively involved people. The aspirations of BVL support the current vision of Tauranga City Council to be an internationally competitive city that balances economic, social, cultural and environmental wellbeing. In particular BVL venues and services contribute to Tauranga being a city that:
Is inclusive, safe and healthy
Attracts business people and visitors.
Figure 3: BVL Facilities Network
The asset groups covered by this Asset Management Plan (AMP) are:
1.2.1 Baypark Stadium Is Tauranga City’s only significant outdoor stadium. It has the capacity for crowds of up to 17,700 people inclusive of seated and corporate hosting areas. It features a 480 metre oval clay speedway track and a turf area (inside the track) which fits field sports codes such as rugby or football. A temporary concrete track is poured on the infield and used for the D1NZ drifting. Whilst the venue meets the minimum requirements for provincial level rugby it is no longer used for this purpose. Factors
18-28 Bay Venues Ltd Asset Management Plan Page 21 of 143 contributing to this include: most competitor venues exceed the minimum requirements for rugby; it does not provide the desired crowd experience due to distance of the seating from the playing area. The venues primary activities are Speedway race meetings (15-17 per annum) Baypark Stadium also hosts other events and activities suited to outdoor spaces. Current annual events include Jetsprints, Drifting and outdoor concerts etc. There are three pavilions on the western side of the main carpark. These pavilions were originally constructed as storage sheds. In 2016 BVL converted shed one into an Indoor Sports Pavilion, including a reception area, two netted courts and a toilet change room area. This area is currently being leased to an external third party. In 2018, BVL converted shed three into an indoor drift trike course and manage as a joint venture with a third party. Shed two is still currently used as storage but consideration is underway to better utilise this space as a revenue gathering activity. To do so, additional storage would need to be considered elsewhere on site. The Stadium Lounge is a self-contained venue adjoined to Baypark Stadium offering a secure and private environment to host public and private functions. Suitable for meetings, conferences, gala dinners, school balls, private functions, weddings and small to medium sized trade shows, this venue can comfortably accommodate up to 450 people for dinner or 500 people theatre style. For major stadium events, this facility offers the client added flexibility for hosting corporate hospitality or pre and post event activities.
1.2.2 Baypark Arena This is a versatile multi-purpose venue with the ability to host many types of events – from community and national sporting fixtures through to trade shows, conferences, gala dinners, corporate hospitality and concerts. The Baypark Arena provides for community sport delivery, along with a range of pay for play sports leagues and programmes that service the community. Within the facility is a licensed café providing a quality food and beverage service.
1.2.3 Aquatic Venues The Aquatics Venues consists of five Aquatic and Leisure facilities – Baywave TECT Aquatic & Leisure Centre, Mount Hot Pools, Greerton Aquatic & Leisure Centre, Otumoetai pool and Memorial pool. These facilities consist of a mix of indoor and outdoor pools that provide safe, all season swimming, and health and fitness opportunities for the community. Baywave TECT Aquatic & Leisure Centre This aquatic and leisure centre, is recognized regionally as providing a variety of fun, safe, well maintained aquatic and leisure activities for the general public including group fitness classes, both aquatic and gym. The facility is also designed and utilised for elite squad training and development, water polo, underwater hockey and local, regional and national events. Within the facility, a number of business units exist as ‘secondary’, although complimentary to the main overall purpose of the facility:
Learn to Swim
Childcare Centre
Clubfit
Café
Merchandise Mount Hot Pools The Mount Hot Pools serves as an iconic and unique hot salt water facility and tourist attraction, providing rest, relaxation and rejuvenation/rehabilitation for a broad range of the community, including elite sports people, elderly and families. The Hot Pools also provides a number of physical therapy options for the general public, including massage therapy, aqua walking and aqua aerobics. Greerton Aquatic & Leisure Centre
18-28 Bay Venues Ltd Asset Management Plan Page 22 of 143 The primary purpose of this venue is very similar to that of Baywave’, being an aquatic and leisure centre, and providing a variety of fun, safe, well maintained aquatic and, leisure activities for the general public (primarily local), including group fitness classes, both aquatic and gym. This facility also allows for the continued growth and development of one of the region’s best performing elite swim clubs. Memorial Pool This is a seasonal facility providing a safe, clean, maintained environment for families and recreational swimmers to enjoy during the summer months. Otumoetai Pool The primary purpose of this facility is to provide for high level squad training, growth and development, while enabling Otumoetai College to undertake ongoing physical education throughout the school year. In addition, the Otumoetai Pool provides a safe, clean, maintained facility for the general public to partake in various aquatic activities.
1.2.4 Indoor Recreation Venues BVL owns two Indoor Recreation Centres, the Queen Elizabeth Youth Centre (QEYC) and the Mount Sports Centre (MSC). BVL also operates two school owned indoor recreation venues, at Aquinas College and Merivale School. The schools are responsible for asset management for those facilities. Queen Elizabeth Youth Centre (including Memorial Hall) This facility provides the city with a multi-court venue suitable for hosting sporting groups and community activities, as well as hosting community and regional sporting fixtures and minor events. A range of programmes that service the needs of the community are also run from this venue. A holiday programme servicing the local area is based at this facility. Mount Sports Centre Located at Blake Park, this facility features a single court gymnasium suitable for hosting sporting groups, community activities and minor events. An after school care and holiday programme servicing the local area is also based at this facility.
1.2.5 Community Halls and Centres The Community Halls and Centres provide space for different community groups, recreational activities and private functions. Each Hall and Community Centre is available for hire seven days a week for either regular periodic or one off bookings. The Community Centres hosts a range of different sized rooms with access to kitchen facilities, tables, chairs, and other equipment. The centres and halls can host 50 to 508 people at maximum capacity. An after school care and holiday programme servicing the local area is based at Arataki Community Centre and Papamoa Sport and Recreation Centre.

18-28 Bay Venues Ltd Asset Management Plan Page 23 of 143 1.2.6 University of Waikato Adams Centre for High Performance Centre Based at Mount Maunganui opposite the Bay Oval, the Adams Centre for High Performance is a world-class facility of over 2,500m2 of state of the art facilities including a 652m2 gym, plunge pools, physiotherapy, massage and rehabilitation rooms, a sport science laboratory with performance testing, research and acclimatisation facilities, meeting rooms, board and conference rooms along with an athletes lounge and kitchen. It caters for a wide range of athletics, high performance organisations, sports science research and athlete medical support services. Current tenants of the centre include NZ Rugby, BOP Rugby, Body in Motion High Performance Sports and the University of Waikato. Adjacent to the Adams Centre, at number 50 Miro Street is a residential house currently leased to the Bay of Plenty Rugby Union. This site was purchased from TCC in 2016 and is currently being considered as a development for accommodating visiting sports groups. 1.3 Overview of Asset Management Planning
1.3.1 Asset Management Objectives The Asset Management Plan (AMP) underpins the Long Term Plan (LTP) and consultative processes that have been put in place to engage the community. Asset management planning delivers a range of benefits to the community as well as the provider of the service, the main ones being:
Improved communications and relationships with service users (following LGA’s “outcomes” approach)
Improved understanding of service level options and standards
Minimum lifecycle (long term) costs are identified for an agreed level of service
Better understanding and forecasting of asset related management options and costs
Improved Risk Management (probability and consequence of asset/network failures addressing continuity of service; non-asset solutions such as demand management)
Improved decision making based on costs and benefits of alternatives
Clear justification of forward works programmes and funding requirements
Improved accountability over the use of public resources
Improved customer satisfaction and organisational image.
1.3.2 Level of Asset Management Practice Core Asset Management Plans The development of an AMP is a journey of continuous improvement. At the entry level is what is commonly referred to as the Core or Basic AMP. It reflects a rudimentary knowledge of the asset (such as the basic asset register and inferred age, condition and performance), associated levels of service and the long term cash flow predictions. Minimum legislative requirements are achieved at this level. Advanced Asset Management Plans At the other end of the spectrum are the Advanced AMPs. Movement towards the development of such plans is a continuous process of data collection, verification, higher confidence levels of outputs and a systematic iterative approach to treatment options, understanding service potential and steadily reducing the number of assumptions that have been made in the past. Advanced asset management aims to employ predictive modelling, risk management and optimised decision making (ODM) techniques, in order to evaluate options and to identify optimum long term plans to deliver the levels of service agreed with the community, in order to achieve the Community Outcomes. As new condition, performance and risk assessment techniques and systems evolve, or as technologies
18-28 Bay Venues Ltd Asset Management Plan Page 24 of 143 associated with asset renewal are improved, so too will the level of sophistication of Advanced AMPs be improved.
1.3.3 The Level of this Plan This AMP is built on previous AMPs of BVL, TCC, TCAL and TCVL. (outlined on page 1 of this document). Those AMP were at a basic to medium level of asset management and were prepared using a “Top Down” approach. There was no previous AMP available for the Adams Centre. In 2005, TCC’s asset management plans successfully migrated to an intermediate level. In preparation for this plan, the structure of TCC’s Asset Management Plan template has been used, in order to gain an intermediate AMP level status for BVL and sustain consistency throughout TCC’s AMPs. However, in reality the plan only achieved a core level with some intermediate elements. It is suggested that a core AMP for BVL may be sufficient with an intermediate level in future planning. However BVL/TCC need to make that decision in an AM policy, which neither entity has yet established (Improvement Task). The AMP consists of a mixture of “Bottom Up” analysis (for asset inventory, age, maintenance history, breaks etc.) as well as “Top Down” analysis (for system condition and performance). Having reached a core/intermediate level means there is room for improvement and sophistication, and how that will be achieved is laid out in the Improvement Plan in Section 9 of this plan. An effective AMP benefits both the user and the stakeholders by demonstrating how BVL proposes to manage the assets in its care to meet agreed levels of service. The plan also enables TCC to make informed decisions about BVL assets and the ongoing investment into BVL’s activities. The plan firmly links into the immediate and long term development plans and financial plans of BVL and TCC, thereby ensuring asset managers align the BVL activity with strategic outcomes.
1.3.4 Asset Management Maturity Index As mentioned previously, TCC strives towards an advanced AMP for all services including BVL activities. The Figure 4 (next page) provides comment on the key elements of this AMP and a statement of the maturity. The maturity of the AMP elements have been based upon the Maturity Index provided in the New Zealand Asset Management Support (NAMS) Group’s International Infrastructure Management Manual (IIMM) 2011 Edition. Figure 4 identifies the current progress (blue bars) and shows where BVL are aiming to be following implementation of the three year Improvement Plan (dark blue line).

Comments / Key AMP Criteria Tasks included in Improvement Plan (IP) Minimum / In Development Core Basic/ Intermediate Advanced
AM Policy and Strategy Corporate expectations are expressed informally “develop and review asset management plans for each facility”. A detailed AM Policy and Strategy need to be prepared, included in IP. Levels of Service Levels of service and performance measures are in place covering a range of service attributes. Growth and Demand Demand forecasts based on population prediction and historical trends. A range of demand scenarios (Growth Management /Demand Forecasting) (change in democratic) need to be developed, included in IP. Risk Management An AMP risk framework is in place and critical assets have been identified in the BVL risk plan. Review of hazards assessments for each facility is planned and included in the IP. Life Cycle Management Sufficient information available to complete valuation and information recorded in TCC’s (Asset Register) AM System, but data reliability status is not yet high. Continue updating of info required, included in IP. Life Cycle Management Building condition assessments undertaken in 2017/18 by Beca and building valuations being (Asset Condition) undertaken in June 2018.
Life Cycle Management Decision making is based upon staff and independent contractor judgement. Decision (Optimised Decision - Making) making techniques applied to large projects. Business cases required for all new capital above $20,000. Life Cycle Management High level operational and maintenance planning is documented in the LCM section. Emergency (Operational & Maintenance Planning) response plans including asset criticality for each facility is planned and included in the IP. Life Cycle Management Projects for the next 1 – 3 years have been partially scoped with major projects having (Capital Works Planning) business cases completed. Projects for 3 – 10 years have been conceptually identified. Financial Forecast Financial forecast based on AMP outputs, but asset revaluations with medium grade data confidence. Improve data confidence.
Business Processes All key staff understand their role in AM and aim towards business process improvement.
1.3.5 Purpose of this Plan The overall purpose of this Asset Management Plan is: To meet a required level of service in the most cost effective way (through the creation, operation, maintenance, renewal and disposal of assets) to provide for existing and future customers. The AMP collects high level management, financial, engineering and technical outputs from various planning studies and asset management systems, and combines these into a single document. It is a living document and is amended as better information becomes available, or in response to changing community needs and revised service levels. The AMP is intended to demonstrate that BVL and consequently TCC are managing the assets responsibly for present and future generations. It is a tool for communicating complex asset management information and strategies with stakeholders and interested parties. This includes optimal life cycle management strategies and providing details of associated long term financial requirements which (in turn) provides the ability to even out peak funding demands and to address loss of service 18-28 Bay Venues Ltd Asset Management Plan Page 26 of 143 potential of assets. It also identifies any key strategic plans relating to the provision of new assets that meet the developing needs of Tauranga.
1.3.6 Plan Timeframe This AMP covers a ten year timeframe, with a major review undertaken three yearly. The plan assumes that the BVL assets as a whole have an indefinite life, and its main focus is determining the strategies required to maintain, rehabilitate and renew components over the next 10 years, while ensuring the long term sustainability of the activity. It is intended that this plan be reviewed every year, with a major review every three years, in line with the TCC LTP process.
1.3.7 Key Planning Assumptions & Limitations of this Plan This AMP has been prepared based on:
Levels of Service - Consultation through a number of initiatives has covered some aspects relating to BVL activity. However, the issues covered by consultation do not provide a complete picture, and therefore most levels of service are based on industry best practice.
Asset condition and performance assessment is still partly “top-down” due to the nature of underground assets only.
1.3.8 Strategic and Corporate Goals TCC’s adopted LTP sets out the direction for the next ten years with major reviews every three years and small adjustments on an annual basis. As a CCO, BVL supports Tauranga’s City Vision and LTP direction. The Plan sets out the key principles that drive what TCC does and the community outcomes that it is aiming to achieve. A review of local government in 2010 has resulted in changes to the approach to community outcomes required in the LGA. The key changes are:
TCC is no longer required to facilitate and coordinate community outcome processes, including the review, monitoring and reporting of these outcomes, and
The meaning of community outcomes has changed to include only TCC’s planned contribution to the wellbeing of its district in the present and for the future. TCC agreed that eight community outcome statements could be used to represent the vision for the city. The vision statement and the community outcomes can be found in Section 2.
18-28 Bay Venues Ltd Asset Management Plan Page 27 of 143 1.4 Relationship with other Plans and Documents The LTP requirements as set out in the LGA have meant that asset management planning and strategic planning processes are strongly integrated. Some of the linkages are summarised in the following Figure and 3 below.
