The most significant challenge facing municipalities today is a shortage of funds required to upgrade or expand aging infrastructure. A chronic lack of funding impairs a municipality's ability to maintain desired infrastructure levels of service. Over the last decade, municipalities in Canada have faced the pressures of increased complexities in infrastructure asset management decision making, which to some extent is attributed to cost escalation, increasing demand, and interdependencies between infrastructure networks. This paper presents a framework to develop an asset levels of service (ALOS)-based decision support system for municipal infrastructure funding investments. This paper focuses primarily on the allocation of funds in the maintenance, rehabilitation, and repair (MR&R) of municipal networks based on ALOS, future demand, and network interdependencies.

Decision making activities include identifying problems, finding alternative solutions to problems, evaluating these alternatives and choosing the best decision alternatives. The Vise Kriterijumska Optimazacija Kompromisno Resenje (VIKOR) method is one of the methods used in decision making. To use the decision support system method must have criteria that will be used in the determination, in addition it must determine the level of importance of each criterion. So the decision support system used must also have comprehensive and integrated planning to minimize the level of risk of failure and decision selection

RIM, or “Ryegrass Integrated Management,” is a model-based software allowing users to conveniently test and compare the long-term performance and profitability of numerous ryegrass control options used in Australian cropping systems. As a user-friendly decision support system that can be used by farmers, advisers, and industry professionals, RIM can aid the delivery of key recommendations among the agricultural community for broadacre cropping systems threatened by herbicide resistance. This paper provides advanced users and future developers with the keys to modify the latest version of RIM in order to facilitate future updates, modifications, and adaptations to other situations. The various components of RIM are mapped and explained, and the key principles underlying the construction of the model are explained. The implementation of RIM into a Microsoft Excel® software format is also documented, with details on how user inputs are coded and parameterized. An overview of the biological, agronomic, and economic components of the model is provided, with emphasis on the ryegrass biological characteristics most critical for its effective management. The extreme variability of these parameters and the subsequent limits of RIM are discussed. The necessary compromises were achieved by emphasizing the primary end-use of the program as a decision support system for farmers and advisors.
