Situation:
Asset management systems work on the philosophy that the fundamentals of how value is created safely and legally, can be distilled into a suite of processes. When these processes are clearly defined and detailed, process owners can focus on governance and assurance activities whilst process practitioners are left busy to add value to the bottom line in a coordinated fashion that leverages best practice. Therefore, asset management processes service the strategic intent of executive level asset management plans, which are published and shared by the Senior Management often with the assistance of Business Improvement and Finance Advisors. Some asset management processes are put in place to enable the business, such as managing the supply chain or managing external stakeholder relationships. Some processes act as control framework components, such as change management or the control of work permitting. However, some processes are key to maintaining and growing an assets competitiveness, such as managing product quality, equipment care or increased production optimisation.
