Foundations
What a hierarchy is, what it is not, and the words and stages the templates use.
- What is an asset hierarchy? The pillar: levels, classes and instances, common patterns, and the mistakes to avoid.
- Hierarchy vs. relationships Classification, connections and decisions are three different questions.
- Asset data glossary Plain definitions of the terms the templates use.
- Lifecycle stages and PCOAR How PCOAR maps to six plain-English stages.
Systems
Taking an agreed standard into the systems that hold the data, and into the plan that funds them.
- Hierarchy, EAM, CMMS and GIS Taking an agreed hierarchy into the systems, and keeping them aligned.
- Digital master plan: asset data Put the hierarchy and data standard in the plan, with a current-to-desired view.
- Effective utility management data The ten EUM attributes and the asset data behind them.
Analytics and AI
Whether the data you hold can answer the questions you will be asked.
- Data readiness for analytics Start from the decision, and find the data you are missing.
- Is your asset data ready for AI? Why context, not just columns, decides the quality of an answer.
- Can your EAM data answer leadership? Start from the questions leadership asks and check the data behind each.
