Modern asset management revolves around four key elements: value, alignment, leadership, and assurance. First and foremost, assets should contribute value to the organisation. If not, they become liabilities. Therefore, asset management actions must be aligned with the strategic objectives of the organisation. Leadership is key to ensure the organisation understands and is empowered to deliver on these objectives. Finally, controlled processes and a robust risk management framework will offer internal and external stakeholders the assurance that the organisation’s assets will indeed fulfil their required purpose. This presentation will provide insight into how a large state owned and private sector owned asset intensive organisations assure themselves that the assets they own will indeed fulfill their required purpose.
