Asset performance management integrates technical and operating information to review the effectiveness of strategies. Indicators and failure analysis help set priorities and track actions.
Indicators with a defined purpose
An indicator is useful when its definition, source and purpose are shared. Comparing operating and maintenance records requires consistent criteria and interpretation grounded in the equipment's context.
Analysis should lead to verifiable decisions: review a task, investigate a failure or complete missing information. Follow-up allows the response to be checked and priorities adjusted.
Service scope
The scope is defined according to asset condition, project stage and available information.
Structure the monitoring process
Asset objectives, indicators and available sources are connected. The review identifies calculation rules and responsibilities for updates.
Performance objectives and indicators
Definitions and information sources
Record quality criteria
Technical capabilities
Connect indicators with asset strategies
Reliability, availability and maintainability
These dimensions help explain failure frequency, the ability to provide service and restoration requirements. Their analysis requires definitions and information consistent with the asset's function.
Common recording criteria
Failure and time history
Relationship to criticality
Maintenance decisions
Performance assessment enables the review of tasks, spares and investigation needs. Results are linked to specific actions and the evidence required to verify their effect.
Review of tasks and frequencies
Recurring failure analysis
Indicators with assigned monitoring responsibilities
Deliverables and coordination
Information for decision-making+
Deliverables are agreed when the service is defined. The bases used, results and outstanding checks are documented so that the information can carry through to the next stage.
Indicator framework and definitions
Performance and record quality assessment
Recommendations and follow-up plan
Background information to get started+
An initial review confirms what information is available and what needs to be completed. To prepare for that discussion, it is useful to have:
