Strategic operation and maintenance audit
Asset Management and Maintenance Audits was written by Ralph Bell and Jo Harris and published by BSRIA in July 2012. It states: ‘Strategic requirements for operation and maintenance match organisational objectives and are determined at management level. The strategic audit examines the status and effectiveness of the organisation’s operation and maintenance system. It determines whether the overall maintenance strategy, maintenance priorities and resourcing are suitable to achieve the objectives of the organisation. The strategic audit also enables management to continually review and re-focus maintenance strategies and action plans to meet those objectives. Strategic audits are concerned with the overall system performance to achieve the organisation’s needs.’
