To successfully establish, operate and improve asset management within an organisation, it is essential that leadership, and commitment, is demonstrated by all levels of management – from senior executives to supervisors.
Leadership and commitmentfrom all tiers of the organization are foundational to the success of any asset management system. ISO 55001 places special emphasis onvisible support from top management, which sets the tone for engagement, resource allocation, and continuous improvement.
Without this leadership, asset management initiatives often fail to embed within the culture or gain strategic relevance.
