VISION OF THE MARKET

​

“For companies that are willing to seek international performance standards within competitive markets, asset management brings, from the context of the organization, a new proposal for the achievement of strategic objectives, integrating all areas of the company, in a way that each of them recognize their role and their responsibility in obtaining value through the organization's assets.

​

The practice of asset management implies an initial reflection on the company's positioning in the market, on its long-term objectives and on the expectations and needs of the interested parties and how they interact with the company's business.

 

The management of physical assets results in a clear policy of renewing assets, which must be replaced when:

 

• Operating and / or maintenance costs during the remaining life of the asset have exceeded the replacement cost;

• There is an imminent risk of asset failure;

• The impact of a likely failure outweighs the replacement cost;

• A likely failure can compromise the reliability and security of the system and people
