Managing assets
Your Challenge
As a manager involved in asset management and planning, you must balance capital investment and short-term operating costs with competitive or regulative pressures and long-term value creation. You have to manage through selective investment in infrastructure assets (everything from property to factories to power lines to expressways) supported by consistent asset management policies and strategies. Furthermore you need to engage your colleagues in developing strategies.
Our Objective…
…is to help you to develop new policies and strategies that integrate your immediate asset management policies with value creation policies across the whole organisation. And to give you simple yet sophisticated tools that you can use to engage and communicate your strategies to your colleagues.
Our Approach
We apply a ‘hands-on’ simulation-based approach that first teaches essential elements of asset investment and maintenance through principles of structure and behaviour – and then encourages self-learning through controlled experimentation with simulations. Asset management is then integrated within the wider business picture, applying the framework of value cycle dynamics.
What you will take away
A new way of developing, analysing and communicating business strategies. You will also take away simulations for further learning and communication with your colleagues. Simulations that you can customise to your own situation. You will also take away our ongoing support. To help you build your own skills and to implement your own strategy solutions.
