Focus on Operational Needs
Can the asset deliver
its capability now and
into the future?
Is the asset getting its required
scheduled maintenance?
How are my plans affecting
those schedules?
How are the key
systems, and what risk
are we carrying into the
future. How can I best
use my resources?
Are we Safe?
Are we above the Safety
threshold?
