This module explains the key phases in an asset’s life cycle. This includes identification of need, creation or acquisition, utilisation and maintenance and decommissioning and disposal. It looks at the integration of these activities to maximise value and at the role of planned interventions and actions to take in the event of failure and incidents. This module should be considered in conjunction with “Life Cycle Activities Part 2”, which covers enablers and disciplines used to support these topics.
