Abstract: The development of the System Management approach to main repair/replace decisions at Public Service Electric and Gas Company is traced. There are brief explanations of the difficulties experienced with the other approaches tried and how System Management overcame them. There is also an explanation of what System Management is, the theory upon which it is based, and an example for other companies to follow to initiate their own programs. The real challenge of the gas distribution main repair/replace decision does not involve the selection of individual replacement segments. It involves accurately predicting, for management, the outcome of the various repair/replace policies it may be considering long before the selection of individual replacement segments begins. At Public Service Electric & Gas Company, we have developed a system to make gas distribution repair/replace forecasts with considerable accuracy this is how we did it.
