What is Asset Lifecycle Management?
Asset lifecycle management is the construction, development, procurement and operation of a business’ physical assets in order to extract maximum value from them throughout their lifecycle. It ensures that assets are efficiently utilized, maintained, and eventually retired or replaced in a cost-effective manner. ALM is commonly used in industries like manufacturing, IT, construction, healthcare, and infrastructure management.
