This intensive course provides a comprehensive exploration of the principles, methodologies, and tools essential for effective asset management and maintenance performance optimisation. Grounded in globally recognised frameworks such as ISO 55000 and PAS 55, the program equips participants with a deep understanding of asset lifecycle management, strategic alignment, and risk-informed decision-making. Emphasis is placed on integrating asset management into organizational objectives, enhancing reliability, and ensuring sustainable value delivery across the enterprise. Participants will gain exposure to asset classification, stakeholder requirements, and criticality analysis, building a foundation for data-driven maintenance planning and performance measurement.
Through a blend of theoretical instruction and applied learning, the course introduces modern maintenance strategies—ranging from preventive and predictive to condition-based and reliability-centred maintenance (RCM). Participants will engage with advanced tools and metrics, including MTBF, MTTR, OEE, and asset health indices, to monitor and improve asset performance. The course also addresses the role of digital technologies such as CMMS, IoT, and analytics in driving operational excellence. By the end of the program, attendees will be equipped to develop maintenance scorecards, apply root cause analysis (RCA), and design continuous improvement initiatives that align with strategic asset management plans.
