INTRODUCTION Around the world, poor and inefficient infrastructure represents a serious socioeconomic challenge facing government and business. It is crucial to note that without efficient and robust infrastructure services, infrastructure economies cannot reach their full growth potential and therefore economic and human development will suffer. This infrastructure gap and concerns about how to find the money to fill it are at the heart of the current discussion. But this particular ideology overshadows the idea of ​​an equally pressing imperative: improving infrastructure planning, delivery and operation to achieve more, higher-quality capabilities for less money and to increase infrastructure productivity. This project addresses the question of the extent of the infrastructure gap. . Here we first analyze the causes of infrastructure inefficiency, then discuss in detail the three main ways to achieve improved infrastructure productivity while achieving savings: carefully selecting projects, implementing them efficiently and enabling existing resources as an alternative to creating new and finally suggesting ways of renewing the infrastructural system.I. CAUSES OF INFRASTRUCTURE EFFICIENCY The productivity of infrastructure projects has been low and stagnant for many reasons. The main factor in many countries is the weakness of the infrastructure planning, provision and management system. Some of the many reasons for limited infrastructure productivity are:1. Biases in planning and forecasting: Many projects are undertaken based on inefficient cost-benefit analyzes presented to investors and regulators. Despite the advancement of technology and science, such analysis is compromised and points towards… middle of paper… unethical practices • USE OF EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE ASSETS: The key objective of asset management lies in the analysis of the asset management approach. total cost of ownership (TCO) that considers the entire life cycle cost and finds the optimal balance between long-term renewal and short-term maintenance.1. Optimize maintenance by regularly evaluating the condition of the infrastructure2. Provide an allocation of funds specifically for maintenanceIII. SUMMARY: INFRASTRUCTURE SYSTEM REVIEW The following can radically improve the current state of the infrastructure:1. Establish strong synchronization between different infrastructure institutions2. Define clear boundaries of political and technical tasks, possibly by establishing independent private sector audit firms.3. Ensure that operators maintain transparency and informed services.4. Robust information-based decision making
