Strengthening management models for piped water supply services in rural and small town contexts:
Decision making resource for selecting and strengthening management models

Description:

This publication is the second in a series focused on management models for piped water services in rural and small‑town settings. It is a decision-making resource designed to help practitioners select or strengthen piped water supply management arrangements in different contexts. The first publication in this series entitled: Management Models for Piped Water Services (see link below) set out the factors that impact on the sustainability of piped water, presenting a typology consisting of ten different management models.

It compares the viability of the ten management models against four variables: 1) commercial viability and economies of scale; 2) technical complexity, connectedness and local capacity; 3) sector policy, legislation and financing arrangements; 4) regulation and accountability mechanisms, local preferences and ensuring inclusive services for all.
