Abstract
The aim of this chapter is to draw attention to the need for asset managers to be familiar with their assets in a technical, business and operational context. The role of the asset manager involves being well informed across the application of the assets, although this does not mean that the asset manager will be the ultimate expert on any one functional aspect. The asset manager will also have an integrated view of the assets as a whole and will understand the relationships, interdependence and degree of criticality among the deployed assets.
