Strategic Asset Management Plan framework

Queensland Government assets help deliver services to communities across the state – cost‑effectively and where they’re needed most.

The department is currently reviewing the Strategic Asset Management Plan (SAMP) framework and guidance materials. These set the Queensland Government’s approach for planning and managing non‑current assets across their lifecycle. Non‑current assets include long‑term resources such as buildings, infrastructure, land and major equipment that support the delivery of government services.

All Queensland Government agencies must prepare a SAMP each year and submit it to the department to support coordinated, whole‑of‑government decision‑making.

Strategic asset management planning helps government to:

• support consistent and transparent asset management practices
• align infrastructure investment with service-delivery needs and priorities
• improve long‑term planning, decision‑making and financial sustainability
• identify asset risks, resource requirements and alternative service-delivery options
• strengthen coordination and continuous improvement across government.

Strategic asset management planning also supports the Queensland Government’s response to the Queensland Productivity Commission review into construction sector productivity ( 1.7 MB), including reforms to strengthen coordination and oversight of public infrastructure and improve whole‑of‑government planning.
