WSAA provides a forum to discuss issues of importance to the urban water industry and, where appropriate, is a focal point for communicating the industry’s views. It facilitates cooperation to improve the industry’s productivity. A key area of WSAA’s role is to facilitate strategic standardisation, industry performance monitoring and benchmarking.
In 2018 WSAA developed the in-house capability to deliver operating cost benchmarking. Studies were completed in 2018 and 2020 with the next planned for 2022. The database now contains segmented operating costs for close to 30 water utilities. The benchmarking program has continued to grow with the completion of a UK cost benchmarking study in 2021.
