Training Course on Infrastructure Asset Management and ISO 55000 Series

Training Course on Infrastructure Asset Management & ISO 55000 Series

Introduction

Infrastructure Asset Management is a critical discipline that ensures long-term, cost-effective, and sustainable management of physical assets across their life cycles. This intensive training course empowers professionals with in-depth knowledge of ISO 55000 standards, lifecycle asset strategies, and risk-based decision-making frameworks. Designed for real-world application, it merges global best practices with data-driven management techniques to optimize infrastructure performance, reliability, and resilience.

As infrastructure systems age and funding becomes more limited, organizations must adopt structured asset management systems to make smarter investment decisions. This course bridges the gap between theory and practical implementation by offering a comprehensive understanding of ISO 55001 certification requirements, strategic asset planning, and technology-enabling tools such as GIS, BIM, and IoT for smarter infrastructure decisions. Participants will gain actionable insights to implement asset management systems that meet international standards and improve stakeholder confidence.
