Background
The Institute of Asset Management ISO 55000 Series is published in three parts:
The Institute of Asset Management (IAM) is the ISO 55000 Asset Management – Overview,
independent organisation for professionals Principles and Terminology;
dedicated to furthering the knowledge and
understanding of asset management. ISO 55001 Asset Management – Management

In pursuance of these aims the IAM, in conjunction
with the BSI, took a major step in sponsoring the As an aid to the application of ISO 55001:2014, the
