ISO 55001 Certification

DIN ISO 55001 is organised according to the high-level structure. This means that the asset management system can be easily docked onto existing management systems or even combined with them.

This standard is primarily intended for organisations that want to install, operate and continuously expand an asset management system in their company, as well as for companies that offer asset management or corresponding services themselves. However, this standard is also useful for stakeholders: it allows them to "feel out" whether organisations are complying with legal requirements and fulfilling their contractual obligations.

Analysis and measurability are also mapped in the DIN. As part of the audits, the organisation evaluates and reports on the performance of the assets and the effectiveness of the asset management system. In addition, the management is obliged to continuously review the effectiveness. This gives you a complete overview at all times.

ISO 55000 is a family of standards for asset management systems. It provides basic information and an overview of this series. It also defines the terminology. 55002 provides further information on practical implementation in the form of best practice examples. ISO 55001 describes the precise requirements for an asset management system.

One of the prerequisites for the certificate is the development of competences among employees and managers. These can be built up in specialised training courses. Understanding the importance and function of the asset management system ensures awareness and greater identification of employees with the topic - and with their company.

ISO 55001 is an internationally recognised standard. The certificate is issued for three years - with annual surveillance audits.
