Optimizing Asset Management in Design Processes - Looking Outside the Box

IMC-2017 Learning Session - 42:45
by Lanny Floyd, University of Alabama at Birmingham

This session will explore lessons from a standard outside the domain of asset management: ANSI/ASSE Z590.3 – 2011 Prevention through Design Guidelines for Addressing Occupational Hazards and Risks in Design and Redesign Processes. This standard provides guidance for a life-cycle assessment and design model that balances environmental and occupational safety and health goals over the life span of a facility, process, or product. While the purpose of this standard is to enable an organization to reduce occupational safety & health risks, its methodology can be applied to reducing risks impacting asset performance. Organizations may realize benefits of aligning resources and processes impacting asset management and occupational safety & health.
