The subject and main purpose of this study is to develop risk analytic model for the design and operation of water supply sector. A water supply system belongs to the critical infrastructure of cities, and it should be a priority task for waterworks and even for the local authorities to ensure the suitable level of its safety. A water supply systems (WSS) ought to be high reliable continuous operating system. Failure factors in WSS should be identified and prioritized, for example, the causing factors in the most frequent failures in waterpipe network. Drinking water supply utilities are responsible for providing a safe and reliable supply of potable water to their customers. Risk priority helps asset manager to target and refine maintenance plans, capital expenditure plans, investigative activities, and deal with potential failure before it occurs. In this paper, we present a review of classic risk analyses, risk management and new methodology for water supply networks management. This paper presents a framework for the analysis of performance risk in water supply that can be applied to the entire system or to individual subsystems. It is expecting that the methodology for the water supply performance risk analysis would provide the city leadership for decision making support.
