Opis

​Engineering and infrastructure assets maintain the lifeline of economies. It is, therefore, critical to manage these assets in such a way that they provide a consistent level of service throughout their lifecycle. Management of asset lifecycle, however, is information intensive and utilises a plethora of information systems. The role of theses systems in asset management is much more profound. It extends beyond the organizational boundaries and addresses business relationships with external stakeholders to deliver enhanced level of business outcomes. In doing so information systems are not only required to translate business strategic considerations into action, but are also expected to produce learnings and feedback that informs business strategy and aids in strategic reorientation.

Engineering and infrastructure asset management is information intensive and utilises a variety of information systems. In theory, these systems translate asset lifecycle management plans into action and develop learnings and feedback that inform asset management strategy. This book serves as a comprehensive resource for asset managers to align information systems with strategic asset management information needs; provide integration of asset lifecycle processes to enable an integrated asset lifecycle management paradigm; and evaluate, control, and manage information system based asset lifecycle management. It assists asset managers in better planning, execution, control, and management of asset lifecycle.
