The IAM runs projects with the aim of developing various aspects of Asset Management. Some of these are wholly internal and some are in collaboration with external partners and co-sponsors.

To date the most prominent of these has been the development and launch of the Publically Available Specification PAS55 on Asset Management, released through BSI (BSI PAS 55:2008).  This has now been supported by our Competences Framework and Assessment Methodology to create the IAM Toolkit.

Recently Completed Work

The launch of the IAM Toolkit in late 2008 saw the completion of that cycle of projects within the IAM. The Toolkit comprises three products; BSI PAS 55:2008, our Competences Framework and the PAS55 Assessment Methodology

The Institute is scoping a series of workstreams based on its 'Beyond PAS55 Compliance' including a series of related Subject Specific guidelines. One of these work groups has already drafted a document: a set of Asset Information Guidelines. The first draft version is available to Members for review after logging in: Asset Information Guidelines.

Do you have a good idea for new work?

If you would like to propose a new project or workstream for the IAM’s consideration, please download the proposal form here and forward the completed form to the IAM’s office. If this is not visible please Contact Us

The IAM is also currently scoping a new set of projects that will further expand the material on asset management accessible by its members.  A key area has the working title of 'Beyond PAS55 Compliance' and will include a maturity and good practice focus.  Assets magazine is carrying a series of three articles giving the background and context to this thinking.

We shall publish more on this once the scopes of any workstreams have been developed.
