About this Document

The ISO standard `ISO 55000 Asset Management' was published in January 2014. This new standard provides a fresh focus upon the purpose and application of asset management within organisations. The significant interest in the standard shown by asset owners, regulators and certification bodies reflects a universal business desire to improve the value returned to organisations, through the effective management of physical assets. To realise that benefit, organizations require knowledgeable people capable of applying an asset management certification process who, at the same time, can use that process to provide the value that business desires. As a non-commercial, worldwide association of professional asset management bodies, the GFMAM has published a document that specifies the appropriate asset management knowledge for personnel who apply an audit or assessment process against the requirements of `ISO 55000 Asset Management'. The aim of that specification the `GFMAM ISO55001 Auditor Assessor Specification' is to help asset owners identify people who are able to provide that value to businesses. Certification bodies likewise will benefit from the use of the Specification to select people with the GFMAM recognised asset management knowledge, providing surety that the added value that organisations seek can be realised. The Auditor Assessor Specification is provided free by the GFMAM.

1 Background

There have been major global advances in Asset Management standards, models and principles over the last two decades. The Global Forum on Maintenance and Asset Management determined that there is benefit in aligning these various advances and collaborating to develop a collective view, in particular for organizations that operate asset management systems in many countries. In March 2014, the GFMAM Asset Management Landscape, Second Edition, English Version, was published1. The International Standard Organization, ISO, published a suite of 3 standards on asset management in January 2014. The ISO 5500X Suite of Standards describes a management system for asset management. This is abbreviated to asset management system within the standard. The three standards in the ISO 55000X suite are:

ISO 55000 - Overview, principles and terminology;

ISO 55001 - Asset management -- Management systems -- Requirements; and

ISO 55002 - Management systems -- Guidelines for the Application of 55001.

After consultation with stakeholders2, it was clear that members and stakeholders of the GFMAM member organisations sought assistance in achieving results from the 5500x standards. In particular, organisations require competent and capable people, who may be employed as staff or brought in from external organisations to assess against, or comply with ISO 55001. This document sets out the minimum knowledge and comprehension specification for personnel to audit or assess to ISO 55001. Each GFMAM member incorporates this Specification as part of their asset management framework.
