In a world of ageing assets and limited financial and human resources, companies often struggle to decide which asset-related projects should get the most attention. The challenge is to ensure asset management processes are adequate to achieve 100% capability. Marcus Evans, one of the world's leading conference organizers, has announced the
Asset Lifecycle Costing and Optimisation 2014 conference to be held in Hilton on the Park Melbourne on the
24th & 25th November 2014 that aims to address the top pressing issues such as: asset productivity, organizational alignment, lifecycle extension, resource allocation, the impact and implementation of ISO 55000, profitability through reliability etc.
The main focus of
the Asset Lifecycle Costing and Optimisation conference would be on
optimising asset lifecycle for maximum productivity and minimum downtime,
aligning asset strategy at business unit level to utilise asset and improve financial performance, Strategically
allocating limited resources and
prioritising workflows based on asset criticality levels,
planning KPIs both reactive, proactive and leading and lagging to provide a 360 view of your asset performance,
deciding strategies to manage your ageing asset's reliability and lifecycle,
leveraging risk-based asset management approaches to manage increasing workload with cost constraints,
collaborating cross functional teams to enhance the organisation's competency in achieving agreed business result,
promoting 'Operator Asset Ownership' to encourage contribution at all levels in minimising equipment downtime,
gearing up for ISO 55000 to enhance your asset management practice and
