Policy Shapes Asset Management

ALN Board Members and ALN Senior Fellows are also members of ASTM International, the ANSI-accredited U.S. Technical Advisory Group (TAG) administrator to ISO Technical Committee 251, which developed and revises the ISO 55000 series of standards. Last week, the TAG discussed the International Water Association’s free webinar video on identifying key issues for sound policy that enables water asset management. The same approach can shape policy to manage any asset type.
