December 2012 the European Federation of National Maintenance Societies (EFNMS) published the “European Vision Document Physical asset Management”. This study was based on a survey comprising 112 organisations from 24 different countries and 23 industrial sectors.
The study shows the organisational maturity of these companies for a number of important asset management aspects as listed in PAS55:
- Asset management strategy & planning
- Risk and review
- Lifecycle delivery
- Asset knowledge
- Organisation and people
The document concludes that, for most organisations, the aspects that have the largest potential for improvement are:
- Risk and review
- Asset knowledge
- Asset management strategy & planning
It was mentioned however that large differences exist between different industrial sectors. Especially for the aspect risk and review and the aspect asset knowledge great variability exists.
