The vast majority of engineers in Australia, and around the world, are involved in managing engineering assets. Every day decisions are made that affect the lifecycle cost of a company’s expensive assets and there are increasing expectations to demonstrate competency and transparency in these decisions. Engineering Asset Management has evolved into a recognised discipline and this course draws on evolving International Standards and best practice to equip asset managers to make rational decisions in an increasingly uncertain world.

What is Engineering Asset Management?
Engineering Asset Management is an emerging inter-disciplinary field that focuses on the management of assets and their associated performance, risks and expenditures throughout their lifecycle to achieve the organisational strategic plan. It combines the technical issues of asset reliability, safety and performance with financial and managerial requirements. The emphasis is on the use of systematic, data-driven, life-cycle and risk-based decision-making to improve competitive advantage and reduce costs.
