Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO document should be noted.

4 Overview of asset management
4.1 General
Asset management is a crucial business activity that involves various disciplines. It applies to any organization, at all levels and across all departments, as each contributes to delivering value from the portfolio of assets. It’s important for everyone in the organization and its value chain to understand the organization’s purpose, objectives and how asset management contributes.Asset management often involves resolving conlicting objectives, risks, opportunities, costs and other impacts on different stakeholders over varying time frames. Decision-making in asset management must therefore address trade-offs to determine the best value options and priorities. Asset management enables organizations to assess the need for, and the performance of, assets at different stages of their life cycles.Since long-lived assets span multiple changes in organizational leadership, the realization of value over the life cycle requires a long-term perspective and consistent stewardship aligned with organizational objectives. Effective asset management contributes to organizational objectives and sustainability by planning for, and creating and preserving value from, the total asset life cycle.

To establish effective asset management, an organization should apply and adopt certain fundamental principles. These, consolidated within a structured asset management system, ensure that there is consistent focus on the right things to do and for the right reasons, and that these are delivered in a coordinated way. Such an approach will result in improved outcomes and beneits.
4.2 Principles of asset management
4.2.1 General
Principles are fundamental guidelines for decision-making, behaviour and actions within an organization. They serve as the foundation for the organization’s values and culture. Principles are applied across various aspects of an organization, such as governance, ethics and operations. They help in establishing a consistent approach to addressing challenges and making choices. The key principles of asset management are given in
4.2.2 Value
Asset management focuses on the value assets provide to the organization over time. This principle encourages clear contributions to organizational objectives, life cycle management and transparent decision-making processes.
4.2.3 Alignment
Asset management aligns inancial, technical and operational decisions with the organizational objectives, promoting vertical and horizontal coordination. Vertical alignment links organizational purpose, asset management objectives, strategies, plans and activities, while horizontal alignment represents collaboration across departments, functions and responsibilities for different stages of the asset life cycle.
4.2.4 Leadership
Leadership and sustained commitment at all levels are crucial for successful asset management. Effective leadership establishes a clear direction, roles, responsibilities and authorities, with transparent consultation and the development of a collaborative culture that is aligned to organizational success.
4.3 Outcomes and beneits from asset management
The primary outcomes of asset management are the realization of value and the achievement of organizational objectives. There are also some characteristics that result from the implementation of a systematic approach to asset management, including the following:— Assurance: Asset management provides better organizational oversight and accountability. It assures that the right decisions are being made, the right resources and activities applied, and that assets can fulil their required purposes over the time frames of such requirements.— Adaptability: Asset management enables organizations to adapt more rapidly and effectively to changes in the internal and external context. This is achieved through monitoring internal and external environments, stakeholder involvement and responsive business cycles in planning and reporting.— Sustainability: Asset management promotes long-term thinking, considering future impacts, risks, uncertainties and opportunities to realize value. It considers environmental, social and economic sustainability, spanning the entire asset life cycle. Sustainability is achieved by looking beyond short-term needs and priorities to consider future impacts and consequences, in order to develop and deliver sustainable plans and activities.The more speciic beneits of asset management include, but are not limited to, the following:a) Improved inancial performance: Boosting return on investments and reducing costs without compromising organizational objectives in the short or long term.

b) Better decision-making: Greater rigour, clarity and consistency in how decisions are made, in the use of data to support these decisions and in the value represented by options that are chosen.c) Managed risk and opportunity: Systematically identifying, evaluating, and controlling risks and opportunities, ensuring appropriate inancial outcomes, and enhancing asset and service resilience, occupational health and safety, and environmental and social impact.d) Greater stakeholder satisfaction and conidence: Ensuring the performance of assets, leading to better service delivery that consistently meets customer and other stakeholder expectations.e) More evident corporate social responsibility: Enhancing the organization’s ability to adopt policies, ethical business practices, and stewardship and activities that promote social and environmental well-being.f) Demonstrated compliance: An asset management system improves the ability to show adherence to legal, statutory and regulatory requirements, as well as complying with asset management standards, policies, processes and procedures.g) Enhanced reputation: Effective asset management can improve customer satisfaction, public conidence and other stakeholder perceptions through demonstrating responsible stewardship of assets and resources.h) Improved eficiency and effectiveness: Improving asset management planning, processes, procedures and asset performance produces greater eficiency and effectiveness of activities. This includes better resource utilization, risk control, teamwork, employee engagement and productivity.i) Improved co-ordination and communication: Asset management results in better collaboration, understanding, behaviours and alignment across all areas of the organization, including support functions and value chain.j) Increased value from innovation: The clearer and more consistent focus on value helps in the appropriate selection, use and beneits obtained from new methods, ideas and technologies.
4.4 Relationship between asset management, asset management system and assets
Many organizations understand that their assets are crucial for their business success. Assets provide value when they contribute to the organization’s objectives and are managed according to its strategies and policies. Organizations use an asset management system to direct, coordinate and control their asset management activities to facilitate this. Asset management improves risk control and ensures that organizational objectives are consistently achieved. Adopting asset management principles is essential for an effective asset management culture.The relationship between asset management, the organization’s asset management system and the assets it manages is shown in Figure 1

Figure 1 — Relationship between key terms in asset management
ISO 55001 and ISO 55002 specify requirements and give guidance on how to apply the asset management system.Management systems can be organized in different ways, either informally or with a more formal structure, depending on the organization’s speciic needs and operational complexity. Many organizations ind incorporating these asset management system requirements into their overall management system beneicial. This integration helps them improve the eficiency and effectiveness of their management activities.The Harmonized Structure, which serves as the basis for all ISO Management System Standards, facilitates this integrated approach. An asset management system can become part of the organization’s broader management framework by aligning the requirements of various management systems. Moreover, it improves process management and makes it easier for the organization to accept each new system.As an example, if an organization already uses a risk management approach in its management system, it can be adapted to include asset management risks. This integrated approach speeds up the beneits derived from asset management and an asset management system.
4.5 Asset management improvement and maturity
Asset management maturity is key to enhancing an organization’s performance. The organization’s progress can be measured by its maturity: showing how well it is performing and where targeted improvements can be made. This involves consistently developing asset management capabilities, improving the asset management system and its implementation, and adopting the principles. This can be considered as part of the continual improvement process.An organization’s asset management and asset management system maturity are relected in its capabilities, which are essential elements enabling success. The speciic type and strength of these capabilities depend on the organization’s context and objectives. Organizations must decide whether there is identiiable value in further improvement or aiming for excellence. Mature organizations consider the changing nature of their operating environments, recognizing opportunities from internal and external sources that can enhance performance if managed effectively.Indicators of an organization’s asset management maturity include:— understanding and communicating the value the organization wants from its assets and incorporating it in the planning processes and management reviews;
