Realize the highest value from your assets
ISO 55001 sets the standard for the management aspects of asset management, spanning the full lifecycle of your assets. The Copperleaf® Decision Analytics Solution provides the analytics and decision-making framework for your organization to build and maintain optimal asset investment plans.
The Copperleaf solution takes into consideration value creation, risk tolerances, financial and resource constraints, and performance obligations. Your organization will gain the confidence it’s achieving the highest return on investment for your assets in full alignment with ISO 5500x standards.
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.
Alignment
In Copperleaf Portfolio™, every candidate investment is valued based on its alignment with your strategic objectives, allowing you to create project and program portfolios that deliver the highest value under multiple financial, timing, resource, risk tolerance, and equipment constraints.
Leadership
When value is expressed in common economic terms through a Value Framework, everyone can understand the rationale behind each decision and see how their projects contribute to high-level goals—creating a culture of transparency, accountability, and trust.
Assurance
Copperleaf Portfolio includes fully auditable workflows, decision-making logic, and approval cycles to ensure decisions are rigorous, transparent, and defensible. Copperleaf Asset™ helps you analyze your entire asset base, identifying today's risks and modeling how risk changes over time—enabling you to develop robust long-term capital plans.
