Asset Integrity Management (AIM) is the proactive and continuous assessment of the physical integrity of an asset to ensure safe and reliable performance throughout its lifecycle. Our experts apply holistic frameworks that combine multidisciplinary assessments—mechanical, structural, electrical, and process—to deeply understand and mitigate failure risks, ensuring assets can operate safely and efficiently.
AIM is critical to avoid potentially catastrophic equipment failure and resulting shutdowns, and losses, that can result from deteriorating equipment. If not managed properly, equipment breakdowns can be costly and threaten the health and safety of employees and the environment, further reputation and operational continuity.
Ausenco AIM programs implement bespoke elements based on the assets needs allowing best-practice assessments to be conducted ensuring every operational aspect of the asset to be considered across all disciplines and departments.
To reduce these risks, AIM programs should be adjusted over the asset’s life to ensure the equipment is properly maintained and replaced as needed. We prioritise and focus on the essential tasks at every stage of your project to ensure optimal execution and results.
