Strategic Asset Management & Decision Making

Multi-industry expertise in providing targeted capital investment and asset management decision making

Our clients often face similar challenges: Where to best invest limited resources and how to justify their funding needs to regulators, governments, or shareholders. With our data-driven approach, renewal, and maintenance needs are identified through end-to-end traceable models. Our ability to drill down to the single asset level allows for us to pinpoint the CAPEX/ OPEX drivers across a portfolio. We consider how to report findings in a transparent and easily conveyable way, showing condition trends and their impact on funding needs. Furthermore, we take into consideration the technology upgrade programs and external requirements, such as capacity increases or systems migrations, which need to be quantified and worked into not only asset management but portfolio and ultimately corporate strategy. We assist our clients across the entire range of these challenges. Our lasting relationships and the long-term support we provide are a testament to the value we deliver to our clients.

We have key projects and provide long-term support for multiple European railway infrastructure managers, aviation, manufacturing owners, and utility companies, with a total portfolio value of more than 500 billion EUR.
