Physical asset lifecycle management

The unrealisation of business benefits from capital projects and underperforming assets erode shareholder value by 6 to 18%. Often at the root of these poor returns are capital inefficiency, poor project performance and passive asset management, which result in higher cost and lower output than originally approved. A key challenge for our clients stems from the complexity of the operations associated with the breadth and scale of capital-intensive businesses. 

Physical asset lifecycle management (PALM) provides businesses and government with strategies and solutions to maximise the profit or social impact generated by their assets and infrastructure throughout the asset lifecycle.
