Welcome
In today’s highly competitive environment, companies have started to realise that the implementation of a robust asset management strategy is key for the company development.
Asset management have to prove their return on investment before being considered from the board. New regulations are coming into place, customer expectations have changed, technology is evolving extremely fast and big data is not only a buzzword anymore but also one of the main challenges faced today.
Therefore, with so much happening, how do you make sure that your asset management strategy will bring massive changes and cut the costs of your organisation?
In March 2014, the IAM Exchange brought together over 100 Directors of Asset Management and Operation & Maintenance, with a group of hand-picked leading consultants and solution providers to find answer to the industry’s most pressing challenges and shape the right path to built a successful asset management strategy.
This report gives you a snapshot of the Infrastructure Asset Management Exchange audience, their key preoccupations and investment plans over the months following the event.
In March 2015, the IAM Exchange will once again bring the discussion to London, for two days and half of impactful debates, lively discussions and productive networking.
More insight into the industry’s trends and predicament, peer interviews and infographics coming soon on www.iamexchange.com
