Align asset decisions with value, risk and lifecycle performance.

ISO 55001:2014 — Asset Management Systems. Capital decisions taken asset by asset produce a portfolio nobody designed. ISO 55001 examines whether asset decisions are connected to organisational objectives, or to whichever budget line was available.

Accreditation status for this programme

Certification programme — accreditation is not claimed on this page.

Each standard page states its accreditation status exactly as it appears in the current official documents of Global Energy Up. The phrase “accredited certification” and any accreditation symbol are used only where the standard and the activity fall inside the published official scope.

Field status: a current accreditation document for this programme has not yet been received in a publishable form. The programme is therefore presented here without an accreditation claim — and the absence of evidence is not a conclusion in either direction.

Who typically applies

Three specific situations.

  • A utility or infrastructure operator with an ageing asset base.
  • An industrial group where maintenance and capital planning report to different logics.
  • An organisation whose regulator expects a defensible asset-management approach.

What the certificate does not mean

The limit, plainly.

Certification does not mean your product conforms and does not mean your performance is excellent. It means your management system met the requirements of the standard at the assessment date, within the scope and sites shown on the certificate.

Management-system certification services are delivered by Global Energy Up. Energy Up International does not issue management-system certificates.
