Strategic Asset Plan Policy

Applicable to: This policy is applicable to all Health Service Providers

Description: The Strategic Asset Plan Policy (the policy) sets out the mandatory requirements for the preparation and submission of a Health Service Providers (HSP) Strategic Asset Plan (HSAP) to ensure the effective and efficient management of assets. The development of a HSAP assists HSPs to identify their asset management investment priorities on an annual basis. The HSAP is for planning purposes only, it is not a funding mechanism.

The policy supports the Western Australian (WA) Government’s mandate to strengthen links between business decisions and asset planning and is consistent with the Department of Treasury’s Strategic Asset Management Framework. A WA health system Strategic Asset Plan (SAP) is prepared by the Department of Health for submission to Government on an annual basis.

The policy is a mandatory requirement for HSPs under the Infrastructure (Asset Management) Policy Framework pursuant to section 26(2)(d) of the Health Services Act 2016.

Date of effect: 24 June 2019
