BS PAS 55-1:2008 specifies therequirements for an asset management system for themanagement of physical assets and asset systems overtheir life cycles. The management of physical assets is,however, inextricably linked to the management ofother asset types (see Figure 2) and these other assettypes are considered within the asset managementsystem insofar as they have a direct impact on themanagement of physical assets.

NOTE For example, the optimal life cycle managementof physical assets is heavily dependent upon informationand knowledge, human assets and financial resources,and often has a significant impact on reputation andcustomer satisfaction.

a) establish an asset management system to optimallyand sustainably manage its physical assets over theirlife cycles or over a defined long-term period;

NOTE There may be an organizational need to manageasset systems optimally for an indefinite period into thefuture i.e. in perpetuity, in which case the defined longtermperiod should align with the time horizon of theorganizational strategic plan and should include the lifecycles of critical assets.

b) implement, maintain and improve an assetmanagement system;

c) assure itself of its compliance with its stated assetmanagement policy and strategy;

d) demonstrate such compliance to others;

e) seek certification/registration of its assetmanagement system by an external organization;
