How Hard Is It To Create An AMP?

Creating an Asset Management Plan (AMP) can be as simple or as complex as you want it to be.

Truth be told an AMP documents your journey of asset management and not so much the destination itself. Organizations with mature asset management programs typically have very complex AMPs that uphold the rigor and structure of the global standard as defined in Section 2.5.3.4 of the ISO 55000:2014 documentation. Yet having a simple AMP is better than no AMP at all. With the passing of the America’s Water Infrastructure Act (AWIA) for Community Water Systems serving drinking water to populations greater than 3,300 you kind of need one, now… Plus, every major water utility in Canada, the United Kingdom, and Australia already have theirs so it’s time we get with the program here in the US.
