3.3 Asset Management

Technical Committee 3.3 "Asset Management" develops, implements, and integrates an asset management framework based on ISO 55001 so that road organizations manage their performance, risks, and costs more effectively and efficiently. The results of the study will bring a guideline for implementing the asset management system. Notably, a web-based asset management manual will be updated through the survey among HMLICs. Extensive efforts are made to explore not only asset management but also the resilience of road networks and renewal and rejuvenation of aging infrastructure. (extract from the Strategic Plan)
