The 4 core concepts of asset management in ISO 55000

  • Value: you invest in assets because of the value they contribute to your organization
  • Alignment: each spending decision needs to support your organization’s strategic objectives and deliver the highest value under financial, timing, and resource constraints
  • Leadership: leadership and workplace culture are key factors that determine how your organization realizes value
  • Assurance: decision making needs to be a rigorous, transparent, and defensible process

How does AIP support ISO 55000?

Asset Investment Planning (AIP) is a best practice in asset management that embodies the key principles of ISO 55000—empowering businesses to make the highest-value intervention decisions. These best practices are the foundation of Copperleaf’s AIP methodology and our Decision Analytics software suite.

Here’s how our solutions can help you implement and conform to the four fundamentals of ISO 55000:

Value

The Copperleaf Value Framework allows organizations to accurately express how value is defined and used to compare different intervention options. It provides a comprehensive risk framework to define and quantify multiple asset and project risk types.
