Asset Management Insights. Celso de Azevedo

Чтение книги онлайн.

СКАЧАТЬ both from infrastructure and industrial scenarios around the globe. He presents theories for solutions, not in a mandatory way, but more in the approach of the traditional scientific method. By this I mean that this book is an invitation to challenge and test his theory through our own experience and application. This addresses, I believe, the problem of the evangelist author and his singular truth.

      What of the problem of writing about complex organizations and complex asset life cycles? Inevitably in writing a sequential book it is required that the text be divided into chapters. Some readers will be drawn to individual sections to learn or even to challenge. Others will read the whole book from front to back. I am sure Celso would invite us to learn and become expert in each of the areas explored but having known him for many years, I am also sure that he would advocate total adoption of all of the thinking to some extent. For me, this reflects the complex nature of Asset Management, where we need a broad view of context and the ability to apply analytical approaches in great detail into that broad context.

      In another potential life where Celso de Azevedo was perhaps Dutch and not Brazilian/French, he may have termed it Total Asset Management like the great Dutch soccer teams of the 1970s. In Total Football, a player who moves out of his position is replaced by another from his team, thus retaining the team’s intended organizational purpose and approach. I feel there is much of this book that reflects this thinking and I hope that you enjoy it, learn from it, test it, and challenge it to deliver greater value for your organization’s stakeholders.

       The Matrix of Methodological Elements Associated with the Life Cycle Segments of Assets

Elements of Asset Capability I’ve taken the liberty of color-coding the elements of Asset Management as three different segments: light gray for pre-op, dark gray for operational, and white for the end-of-life, which could serve as “chapters” in which to divide up the book.
	Design and Conception	Evaluation	Specification	Procurement	Installation	Commissioning	Operational	Maintenance and Modification	Replacement vs. Disposal
Value to • Stakeholders • Corporate • Employees • Public • Etc.	The finality and specific nature of the assets must be the driving element of the value-to-extract	Taking into account more that strictly the economico-financiary technics in the definition of values	Need to the interests of stakeholders/ alignment of value	Taking into account of values far beyond purchase price		Optimizing profit from this run-in period by also verifying chances and real values to be extracted	Having an active consciousness of the fact that everyday we can optimize the extraction of value	Realizing that “parts replacement” and “value extraction” are not necessarily compatible	The values of an organization are so many drives for end-of-life arbitration
Constituents of Asset Capability
People • Engagement/ commitment • Behaviors and values • Competency • Etc.		Anticipation of the life-cycle	Taking into account future needs in terms of competencies linked to the value-to-extract	Raise awareness regarding life-cycle timely for commitment	Impact of BIM on competencies profile	The worst and best moment for understanding competencies required	Adequation between competencies and evolution of the needs, between level of commitment and values alignment	“Loving care” behavior and emotional attachment	“Loving care”/ rise of a need for an aging management structure and roles
Finance • Accounting • Budgeting • GAAP tools • Technology		Life-cycle analysis vs. design-to-cost/ monetization of the risk factor (including technology)	Alignment between asset register and asset costing	Life-cycle cost process	Alignment between asset costing/as set register	Budgetary differentiation between commissionning and operational phase	How asset costing feeds the decision-making process	How asset costing feeds the decision making process	How depreciation rules and provision policies can impact on the timely replacement
Management Systems and Processes • Decisions • Technology • Types of Processes • PDCA • Etc.		Alignment of corporate objectives			Milestone for key elements in the AMS (configuration management)	Alignment of corporate strategies		Theory of signals: Necessity of an aging manager to assess the asset’s end-of-life status/ineffectiveness of practices such as “modification redesign”	Theory of signals: Necessity of an aging manager to assess the asset’s end-of-life status
Asset Capabilities		The historical decline of life-cycle costing techniques The importance of FEED approaches which take into account risks and costs in project phase	Success and failure factors of the insertion of the LCC in specification Demystifying untenable counterarguments	The clear and obvious need for LCC in buying processes	Reliability, redundancies	To comprehend this phase as a hiatus from the guiding trade-offs	The importance of operators in the examining of trade-offs The necessary distinction between assets in service life and assets in mature life	The necessary and daily usage of trade-offs and other optimization tools	Mastering the mature life and the trade-offs specific to the asset’s end-of-life
Risk and Decision-Making • Stakeholders • Corporate • Asset • Deterministic vs. Probabilistic vs. Legal • Technology		Demystification about the interdependency between different factors (stakeholders/ corporate/regulation) СКАЧАТЬ В начало < 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 > В конец
