Asset Management
Asset Management combines different failure prevention and detection plans for a facility's assets and assemblies with aligned management processes and appropriate resources to ensure that the assets e deliver a positive contribution to the organisation's bottom line.
A successful organisation will gauge this contribution with appropriate trends and key performance measurements and it will be assured by a continuous improvement process.
The successful asset management system will be embedded in the organisation and at all levels. A detailed policy and strategy should co-exist with the overall business policies and strategies and should match them in style, tone and intent.
The organisation with a successful asset management system will see their assets and assemblies within a reliability framework and all processes and systems will be focussed on this. The reliable organisation knows what asset care provision to make, when to do it and what resources it needs to do it. The reliable organisation ensures that production and operations are carried out under a cloak of certainty; schedules can be set and maintained, clients and customers can be confident of quality.
A good asset management system considers the assets from a lifecycle context and ensures that the organisation and structure that delivers the system has the appropriate mix of skills and experience to do this.
