For com\u00adpa\u00adnies like Ten\u00adneT, where we have to mon\u00adi\u00adtor a lot of assets, I think the ISO 55,000 fits bet\u00adter to our process\u00ades and size of our asset base. This way we stay in con\u00adtrol. Also, from the board\u00adroom up to oper\u00ada\u00adtions and main\u00adte\u00adnance we can choose a broad\u00ader scope. An exten\u00adsive mon\u00adi\u00adtor\u00ading like this becomes more and more impor\u00adtant, not only for us: Some of the con\u00adven\u00adtion\u00adal AC trans\u00adform\u00aders were installed up to thir\u00adty years ago and become more sus\u00adcep\u00adti\u00adble to problems\u2014but if they fail, the whole sys\u00adtem can fail. At the same time, DC con\u00advert\u00ader tech\u00adnol\u00ado\u00adgy has also become a fair\u00adly impor\u00adtant aspect espe\u00adcial\u00adly with the increase of renew\u00adables. Imple\u00adment\u00ading ISO 55,000 was a big step for\u00adward for Ten\u00adneT, regard\u00ading the seam\u00adless mon\u00adi\u00adtor\u00ading of all of our sys\u00adtems and process\u00ades. Hav\u00ading reli\u00adable data to man\u00adage the life cycle is very impor\u00adtant, though. It\u2019s not only about hav\u00ading the tools, but also hav\u00ading it embed\u00added in a well-func\u00adtion\u00ading, qual\u00adi\u00adty sys\u00adtem like ISO 55,000.<\/p>\n
First of all, I think the out\u00adcome of inspec\u00adtions and con\u00addi\u00adtion mon\u00adi\u00adtor\u00ading will become more trans\u00adpar\u00adent. Also more fact-based, although the expe\u00adri\u00adence of experts is still extreme\u00adly impor\u00adtant. But this more objec\u00adtive approach helps us to have a more pre\u00addictable per\u00adfor\u00admance of our assets. This also means that our coun\u00adter\u00admea\u00adsures to pre\u00advent out\u00adages will become even more effi\u00adcient, more effec\u00adtive, sim\u00adply bet\u00adter. We can see this in oth\u00ader indus\u00adtries, too. I have a back\u00adground as an aero\u00adspace engi\u00adneer: For instance, the old Boe\u00ading 707 required around twice as much main\u00adte\u00adnance as cur\u00adrent air\u00adplanes. Devel\u00adop\u00ading an out\u00adstand\u00ading con\u00addi\u00adtion mon\u00adi\u00adtor\u00ading was cru\u00adcial in aero\u00adspace engi\u00adneer\u00ading. More and more often I see that we can adapt some of these sys\u00adtems and process\u00ades in our own com\u00adpa\u00adny and that we can learn a lot from oth\u00ader com\u00adpa\u00adnies. I think that\u2019s a great idea.<\/p>\n
One of the dilem\u00admas we faced when we intro\u00adduced ISO 55,000 is that we were one of the first asset man\u00adag\u00ading com\u00adpa\u00adnies in the Nether\u00adlands at all. The ref\u00ader\u00adences were man\u00adage\u00adable, the risks were high. The imple\u00admen\u00adta\u00adtion would cost a lot of mon\u00adey and time. Look\u00ading back at it now I can say that this change has brought a lot of added val\u00adue. We have a bet\u00adter under\u00adstand\u00ading of our process\u00ades, have bet\u00adter con\u00adtrol, and we can also con\u00advince the state audi\u00adtors more quick\u00adly. It also takes less effort to con\u00advince our reg\u00adu\u00adla\u00adtors that we are in con\u00adtrol of the busi\u00adness. So there\u00adfore I think the invest\u00adment is worth\u00adwhile. I also think that it is very impor\u00adtant to imple\u00adment ISO 55,000 along the entire sup\u00adply chain, because we have to rely on the process flows of our sup\u00adpli\u00aders. I hope that we will soon find ISO 55,000 along the whole asset man\u00adage\u00adment chain. The intro\u00adduc\u00adtion is the easy part, by the way. Keep\u00ading up with it, learn\u00ading and grow\u00ading with it \u2026 that\u2019s the real chal\u00adlenge, but it\u2019s worth it!<\/p>\n\n
