Background

About ISO 55001:2014

International Assessment Bureau is an independent certification body based in the UK. Proper asset management means using the assets you already have more wisely, getting more from their utilisation and delivering added value to the business. ISO 55001 is designed to support the proper handling of the processes and risks involved, leading to improved current and future performance.

Implementing an asset management system that complies with ISO 55001 aligns your organisation's wider objectives with its asset management objectives, helping the organisation achieve its intended outcomes. ISO itself issues no certification or conformity test directly - it develops the standards through a consensus-based process involving technical committees, industry experts, consumer organisations and national standards bodies. Certification against ISO 55001:2014 is carried out by certification bodies such as International Assessment Bureau.
