This study assessed the presence of key requirements for sustainable O&M and rehabilitation of rural small-scale water infrastructure in Makhudutamaga Municipality in South Africa. The study found a significant correlation between the requirements for sustainable O&M and rehabilitation of rural small-scale water infrastructure and continuity of service provision (p < 0.001) by the small-scale water infrastructure as well as functionality (p < 0.001) of the small-scale water infrastructure hardware. The study concludes that the presence of the key requirements varies as a function of social dynamics of communities and the presence of these requirements has an impact on the functionality and continuity of the small-scale water infrastructure hardware.

With the participation of social capital, the operation and maintenance performance of Public-Private Partnership (PPP) urban infrastructure is becoming the key value-added point. This chapter summarizes and analyzes the problems of traditional urban infrastructure operation and maintenance (UIOM), and innovatively proposes the UIOM mode under the PPP background. Combined with the characteristics of the new generation of information technology, this chapter puts forward an efficient and intelligent UIOM mode with the features of intelligent decision-making, fine maintenance, technical optimization, capital saving, resource integration, and sustainability. This chapter takes the Highway Tunnel as the example, propose the Evaluation Index System for Intelligent UIOM Mode and implement the evaluation process using the AHP. The proposed intelligent UIOM Mode provides a scientific solution to the improvement of the subsequent evaluation system and the optimization of operation and maintenance decisions in PPP urban infrastructure projects.
