PAS 55 implementation and certification

"We have worked with MCP to achieve compliance and certification with PAS 55" - Emcor Facilities Management Ltd

PAS 55, published by the British Standards Institution provides a consistent set of requirements for Good Practice of physical assets – PAS 55 is applicable to all industry sectors.

We have worked with a team from the Institute of Asset Management to develop an assessment methodology which can be used by any organisation wishing to achieve PAS 55 Certification.

Find out more about the benefits of PAS 55 at the Total Workplace Management seminar in Olympia on October 8th.  Noel Grinsted from MCP and a representative from AMEY will be co-presenting a seminar slot on the commercial, environmental, Regulatory and energy benefits PAS55 brings.

FAQ

Question: What is PAS 55?

PAS 55 is the British Standards Institution's "Publicly Available Specification" for the optimised management of physical assets and infrastructure - it provides clear definitions and a 21-point requirements specification for joined-up, optimised and whole-life asset management systems.

What it does:

Companies in all sectors are rapidly picking up on the potential for achieving benefits through improving asset management and delivering highly reliable, stable and cost-effective asset performance in terms improved customer service, and also in enhanced relationships with Regulators. So the flow of companies wishing to prepare for PAS 55 Asset Management certification will grow, and we can expect PAS 55 Certification for asset intensive businesses to become in due course as much a requirement as ISO 9000.

PAS 55 has two parts:

Part 1:
Specification for the optimised management of physical infrastructure assets. These form the basis for any assessment of conformance (internal or external) and subsequent certification.

Part 2:
Guidelines for the application of PAS 55-1 provides guidance to aid the understanding of the intent of the requirements in Part 1.
It does not introduce any new requirements.
