SUMMARY:Sydney - Asset Management Evolution in the Age of the Energy Transition
DESCRIPTION:The drive towards a sustainable future is reshaping the global landscape and has consequently moved to the forefront in the world of asset management. Since COP21 in 2015\, organisations and governments have began addressing the huge challenge of decarbonisation. Since infrastructure\, construction and operation constitutes 70% of global GHG emissions\, sustainable asset strategies are a key enabler of this global ambition. \nThe energy transition transcends the energy sector\, impacting organisations across the board. From utilities to transportation\, and from manufacturing to public services\, every asset portfolio is undergoing a pivotal change. Where once the triad of risk\, performance\, and cost dictated asset management\, we now witness an incremental fourth dimension – sustainability. \nAsset management principles are also evolving. The Institute of Asset Management’s Asset Anatomy’s fourth edition explicitly recognises the urgent need to embed ESG considerations\, carbon abatement\, and circular economy principles into asset management methodologies. This shift majorly attributes to the evolution of the 6-box capability model into a more holistic 10 Box perspective. \nThis presentation will unpack these changes and explore examples of asset portfolios around the world effectively applying these new and evolved capabilities\, by employing novel renewable solutions\, as they advance through the energy transition. \n  \nClick here to register\nThis is an in person event. \n  \n\nAbout the Speaker:\nEmily Mulcair\, Manager\, KPMG\nEmily is a Manager in KPMG’s Engineering and Asset Management team. Spending her early career in Ireland working on biomethane and hydrogen feasibility and detailed design projects\, Emily now consults on largescale energy system reviews\, maintaining a passion for the integration of renewable gas into the global energy mix in the transition to net zero.

SUMMARY:Sydney - Securing Your Asset Management Budget
DESCRIPTION:Asset managers are often pawns in achieving an organisation’s desired balance of “cost\, risk\, and performance”. Put another way\, when the numbers don’t add up\, one or more of these three characteristics must change— but which? Two of the characteristics are readily evident and measurable\, while risk is not. Achieving desired performance along with budget cuts seems seductively possible— for a while. But like gravity\, the inevitable increase in risk exposure\, in the form of deteriorating reliability and availability\, takes hold. Like gravity and mass\, reliability and availability possess inertia. Thus\, by the time the impacts of budget cuts become evident\, the originator has taken their bonus and left the scene of the crime\, leaving a successor with the hard sell of recovery\, which may take years of additional expenditure. Successful asset managers understand the importance of protecting their budget through the defensibility of every line item of expenditure. This presentation by Jim Kennedy will explore the production of a defensible preventive maintenance program as an essential core of any asset management plan. Key to this exploration is “risk and maths”\, noting that it is not the task that determines the budget cost but how often the task must be done to assure desired performance. \nClick here to register\n  \n\nAbout the speaker:\nJames (Jim) Kennedy\, Director\, Interlogis Consulting Pty Ltd; Founding Chair and Past Sensei\, Asset Management Council (Australia); and Past Member IEC TC56 – Dependability Standards.\n \nJim is a Mechanical Engineer with postgraduate qualifications in Risk Management and also in Maintenance Engineering and Management from Swinburne University in Melbourne. He has over 55 years’ experience in maintenance and asset management in the aerospace\, rail\, power\, water\, and defence industries. \nFor the last 30 years\, Jim has been directly involved in asset management activities\, including 9 years as Technical Director of the Maintenance Engineering Society of Australia (MESA) and 8 years as Chair and Board member of the Asset Management Council. He has authored two manuals on Reliability Centred Maintenance and Asset Management and has presented 70+ papers in Australia\, Europe\, the Middle East\, Africa\, and South America. \nOver the last 15 years\, Jim has worked part-time with Australian Maritime Defence in adapting an evolving asset management discipline to a military environment with a long history. Jim’s standards activity in the IEC Technical Committee TC56 includes either new or revised standards for Reliability\, Maintenance and Maintainability\, Support and Supportability\, Dependability Specifications\, and Reliability Centred Maintenance.
