Decision Aid: Maintain, Partly Rebuild, or Reconstruct an Operating Facility?

Publication: Ports 2019: Port Planning and Development

ABSTRACT

Determining whether to repair and maintain or to replace some, or all, of an operating facility that generates revenue is challenging. Under annual pressure to minimize expenditures and maximize revenue, owners are tempted to apply lowest cost, least impact, band-aid solutions. Analysis may determine that this short-term approach is not the best one for the business considering the operational life of a facility. The method described in this paper was developed to assemble and analyse information to support solid decision making and to present the results in a manner that allows an owner to more clearly compare and evaluate options and, as a result, make optimal decisions given the particulars of their own business situation.
