Forty is the new thirty when it comes to an asset's life. To increase an asset's longevity beyond design life it is necessary to understand the risks, benefits of delaying new capital expenditure and impacts on strategic objectives. Integrated solutions that balance cost, risk and performance over the asset life cycle are needed to optimise asset reliability, availability and quality, at minimum cost.
GHD's connected, global commercial and asset management team helps our clients deliver more from their assets and business.
Approximately two thirds of an asset's total cost is operational, maintenance disposal and financial. It is easy to save money by short-term expenditure reductions, however this often leads to higher long-term costs.
Increasingly, focus is now also on non-physical assets. The same conceptual approach taken to managing infrastructure, plant and equipment applies to people and information.
Through bottom-up change we maximise opportunities. It begins with people making the right decisions at the right time. We challenge "it's always been done this way". Through collaboration and knowledge sharing we help people identify and understand obsolete rules, duplication and imbalances so they are enabled to make optimal decisions.
Our services include:
- Operational readiness
- Operational excellence
- Business performance improvement
- Continuous improvement (e.g. root cause failure analysis)
- Reliability planning
- Life cycle value realisation
GHD finds smarter ways to manage assets more effectively, improve business and bring about change to get a competitive edge and improve our clients' bottom line.
