It is widely acknowledged nowadays that the most effective way for an enterprise to build value is through asset management. Its principles are far-reaching and its benefits extend into all sectors and disciplines, from large engineering assets to art galleries, transport to defence, public parks to energy, and buildings to data.

Hammersmith Bridge in London is a fine example of engineering expertise. First built in 1887, it crosses the River Thames between Hammersmith and Barnes, and was designed by Sir Joseph Bazalgette. It is 13m wide and 210m long, with a central roadway and pedestrian crossing on either side. It is also London’s weakest bridge, with a 7.5 tonne limit and recent traffic flow, predominately for single-decker buses, has been controlled by traffic lights[1].
The European Union’s ten-year initiative, Destination Earth, involves the creation of a digital twin of earth.
The highly accurate digital model of earth will map climate development and extreme events as accurately as possible in space and time. Observational data will be continuously incorporated into the digital twin to predict possible future trajectories. Information available from the earth’s twin will be used to:

V/Line has been certified to the ISO 55001:2014 Asset Management System following an audit of its policies, framework and procedures by BSI Group last year.
The certification applies to all V/Line assets, including trains, tracks, signals, stations, structures and ICT, and acknowledges work done in all parts of the asset management process, including strategic planning, financial management, assurance, risk management and planning along with physical inspections, maintenance and renewal programs.
In honour of International Women’s Day 2021, we checked in with a few of the AMCouncil’s Women in Asset Management (WiAM) special interest group and asked them what asset management means to them. Check out the video below.
