Methodological Evaluation of Municipal Infrastructure Assets Systems in Rwanda: A Randomized Field Trial for Risk Reduction Assessment

Key Points

The aim is to evaluate risk reduction outcomes related to municipal infrastructure assets in Rwanda.
Conducted a randomized field trial across three municipalities
Employed a logistic regression model for data analysis
Analyzed adherence to standardized maintenance protocols
Standardized maintenance reduced failure likelihood by 20%
Odds ratio calculated as OR = 0.80 with a 95% confidence interval of [0.69-0.93]
Statistically significant with p < 0.01

Abstract

Rwanda's municipal infrastructure assets are under significant stress due to rapid urbanization and inadequate maintenance. A randomized field trial was conducted across three municipalities, employing a logistic regression model to analyse risk reduction outcomes. The analysis revealed that adherence to standardised maintenance protocols reduced the likelihood of failure by 20% (OR = 0.80, CI: 0.69-0.93, p < 0.01). Standardised asset management practices significantly enhance risk reduction in municipal water supply networks. Municipalities should implement and enforce standardised maintenance protocols to mitigate infrastructure risks effectively.
