The investment in assets is huge – whether financial, organisational, in infrastructure, buildings or plant. ISO 55001 Asset Management certification helps to achieve and verify high productivity and low cost of assets.
Public and private organisations invest large amounts of money in assets. To derive maximum benefit from each asset, it needs to be managed to deliver maximum performance over its entire lifecycle, at the lowest cost of ownership.
A good asset management system lowers risk and makes your business more efficient, with operational activities that support the business strategy.
Taking an active approach to lifecycle asset management, ISO 55001 Asset Management certification helps you to manage the processes and risks – from specifying, designing, procuring or building, commissioning, operating, maintaining and disposing of assets. Furthermore, the ISO 55001 standard includes measures for ongoing improvements.
When implementing your asset management system, useful information and guidance can be obtained from the following support standards that form part of the ISO 55000 family. Both of the below standards can be applied to all types of assets and by all types and sizes of organizations.

How to achieve certification
Contact Telarc using our quote request form and we will help you through the process to achieve the certification(s) your organisation strives for.
The standards can be complex, but we’ve made it easy with simplified self-evaluation checklists that break down what you need to have implemented to meet the requirements of the standard. You can use the checklist to determine to what extent you already meet the requirements to become accredited, and which gaps need to be addressed.
Once you’re satisfied that your organisation meets the requirements, Telarc will audit your systems and either issue the certification or identify non-conformances that you need to address before certification is granted.
