Principles of Asset Management

Aimed at utilities in developing countries, SAMS, Simplified Asset Management Systems detailed an effective framework for anyone seeking to develop a low-cost asset management system for their physical assets. Based on worked examples it focused on the procedures necessary for the capital maintenance of infrastructure assets. This second publication seeks to extend that work into new areas and goes on to show how the basic principles can be applied to functions other than infrastructure. In contrast to other more formal publications on asset management, it concentrates on the practical aspects using worked examples to guide you through the process of producing a successful asset management system.
