The Programmed ISO55001-certified Asset Management System (AMS) is structured to meet the legislative and other requirements for both Australia and New Zealand for the management of assets. To achieve these requirements, the following principles apply:
- Safety is the highest priority.
- Prevention is better than corrective action.
- Assets are monitored, and the relevant maintenance activities are scheduled according to applicable legislative, codes, and standard requirements. In the absence of an applicable statutory regime, manufacturers’ recommendations and evidence-based risk management practices are adopted to determine the most appropriate maintenance strategy.
In this presentation, Akhil Raj from the Programmed Facility Management (PFM) Strategic Asset Management Team will talk you through the building blocks of a successful and efficient maintenance operation, ensuring the risks and challenges associated with Statutory Maintenance for your customers and communities are understood and managed effectively. These building blocks include, but are not limited to, the following:
- A robust and accurate asset register.
- Understanding statutory requirements pertinent to your jurisdiction:
- Maintenance requirements.
- Reporting requirements.
- Registration requirements.
- Competency of resources (trade qualifications and licenses).
- Future of Statutory Maintenance: Are we susceptible to disruption, or is this an opportunity?
We will talk about the People, Processes, and Systems we have developed and are utilizing in Programmed Facility Management to effectively undertake and manage these tasks.
