Certification will include an exam and cover individual subjects in the GFMAM Landscape to ensure that assessors have a comprehensive knowledge of asset management; effective methods of ISO 55001 implementation and how assets will continue to be managed. The Asset Management Council believes this is the first initiative where stakeholders require assurance around the domain knowledge of auditors and assessors, as well as being the first initiative created through a partnership between international peak bodies.
Case example – attributable results from effective asset management. A major industry leader was experiencing an erratic share price and a bleak future. The company, intent on improving reliability of the business, made the unexpected move of doubling the size of the maintenance task force during official shut downs. Contrary to previous beliefs and practices, overall plant reliability significantly increased as was the company’s reliability, resulting in a substantially improved share price – all due to effective Asset Management practices.
Asset management certification will allow for this type of continuity across numerous asset types and in turn increase safety, profitability, customer service and market-share for participants globally.
‘We have pursued and reached the next phase on the Knowledge Highway and brought Asset Management well and truly into the 21st Century…’
