PRIORITIES STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES

Provide theoretical components of I&C Course via e-learning on PIA website to deliver cost efficiencies and improvements to course program Expand portfolio of learning content to include on-demand webinars, videos and other short- course content – leverage key member companies to provide content Promote awareness of pump system efficiency and reliability amongst end-users by developing specific end-user learning programs targeted to operators, maintenance personnel and

• rganisations that may not qualify for PIA membership but are still active in the pump industry.

As indicated by the survey results, members value topics and themes that cover operational and practical-based topics to help their day to day job such as optimisation, troubleshooting, condition monitoring etc. Plan more events and expert speakers coveringthe concepts and methodology of more operational topics

STRATEGIC GOAL

Become the Leading Voice, on Behalf Off, and For the Pump Industry PRIORITIES STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES

Play a proactive role in government energy efficiency compliance programs - propose pump systems energy efficiency auditor certification program run by PIA Seek input from a panel of members who are experts in their subject matter on regulatory and

• ther government issues open for consultation for PIA to make submissions

Devise programs/initiatives to better engage volunteers and industry leaders, as well as a younger workforce i.e. technical subcommittees Increase engagement and participation, from CEOs and executive managerial levels from

• ur larger corporate members esp. on policy position items

Establish Technical committees, meeting in web-based teleconferences to review, maintain & grow PIA’s portfolio of publications and technical documents Extend partnership opportunities with other associations – particularly those Serving the sectors who are end-users of pumps i.e.. WSAA, Mineral Council, WIOA and the Energy & Oil & Gas sectors – to collaborate on cooperative training and policy items

Make sure our communications are relevant, not annoying, and via mediums that suit all our members preferences i.e.. Social media, news on website, targeted email communications

2017/8 ANNUAL REPORT

STANDARDS

Currently regulates the energy efficiency requirements for a wide range of equipment under the Act, including household whitegoods, lighting, electric motors and air conditioners

A CALL FOR PIA TECHNICAL COMMITTEE MEMBERS

A CALL FOR PIA TECHNICAL COMMITTEE MEMBERS

The Department is now examining the potential to reduce energy use and energy costs for the commercial and industrial sectors, through setting minimum energy performance standards for the pumps, boilers and air compressors sold in Australia and New Zealand for use by industrial or commercial sectors

A CALL FOR PIA TECHNICAL COMMITTEE MEMBERS

It is expected that the regulations could affect stakeholders that use this equipment in sectors including (but not limited to): agriculture, food and chemical processing, forestry, manufacturing, mining and minerals, water and wastewater, commercial building operation, wood and paper processing and construction. Sectors involved in the manufacture, import, export or retail of the equipment could also be affected. Timing: Early 2019
