Why should you use this standard?
This series of standards gives guidance and requirements relating to developing and maintaining a long-term asset management system. This incorporates an organization’s mission, values, objectives, business policies and stakeholder requirements. It also seeks to:
- Facilitate the implementation of key principles with clear direction and leadership
- Achieve staff awareness, commitment and cross-functional coordination
- Obtain adequate information and knowledge of asset condition, performance, risks and costs and the interrelationships between these
BS ISO 55002 provides the specific guidelines for the application of this system, in accordance with the principles set out in BS ISO 55000.
NOTE: the other two parts of the series are:
