 ISO 55000-Asset management | ISO Certification and Trainings- Abu Dhabi,Dubai, UAE 

About ISO 55000-Asset management

The ISO 55000:2014 Asset Management System introduces the involvement of assets, and value realized from them, it is the basis for any organisation delivering what it aims to do. Whether the organization is involved on the public or private sector, and whether the assets are physical, financial, human or ‘intangible’, it is good asset management that maximises value-for-money and satisfaction of stakeholder’s expectations. 

 

It involves the coordinated and optimized planning, asset selection, acquisition/development, utilization, care (maintenance) and ultimate disposal or renewal of the appropriate assets and asset systems.   Insights into the integration and optimization of asset management have developed since the 1990s (from the North Sea oil & gas industry and the Australian public sector), to identify a range of essential business processes, alignment activities and system integration features that yield very significant performance benefits.

Main Highlights

The ISO 55001:2014 is not the type of standard that is one size fits all.  The implementation on an asset management system requires investment of time, energy and in some cases, substantial cost – justified only by the organizations ability to realize the benefits of implementation.  

 

The aim of the standards management system certification is to build and inspire confidence from the public sectors, customers, stakeholders and interested parties. This will instill and promote confidence within the organization and to continuously fulfill the specified requirements.

 

Several factors to be considered across the implementation will be the competence of management and staff, impartiality and the perception of impartiality and the avoidance of conflicts of interest. 

Brief about the ISO standard

 

Adopted from the ISO standard: ISO 55000

 

The ISO 55001 evidently specifies requirements for an asset management system while rest of the other standards are more focused on the sector- specialized, asset-specialized or activity-specialized.

 

The implementation of an asset management system provides assurance and instills confidence that those objectives can be achieved consistently and sustainably over time by the organization.
