ISO 55000 is part of the international ISO 55000 family of standards for asset management. It provides principles and terminology that help organizations manage assets systematically and realize value from them while considering performance, cost, risk, and organizational objectives.
Learn more about implementing a successful asset management program.
ISO 55000 provides a structured asset management framework, while Asset Performance Management (APM) focuses on improving the performance and reliability of assets by connecting people, processes, data, and technology. Together, these approaches can help organizations align asset decisions with business objectives, risk, and lifecycle performance.
Explore the APM Roadmap to learn how organizations can develop a structured path toward improved asset performance.
Reliable data is essential for making informed asset management decisions and gaining value from digital technologies. Organizations need consistent asset hierarchies, classifications, maintenance records, and governance practices so information can be trusted and analyzed effectively.
