The 2009 Asset Performance Management Research
Risk Management Is Going to Be a Key Strategy for CFOs and Maintenance Managers to Maximize Return-on-Assets (RoA) in a Reduced Budget EnvironmentThe third annual research report, "Asset Performance Management: Aligning the goals of CFOs and Maintenance Managers," by Aberdeen Group, a Harte-Hanks Company (NYSE: HHS), has correlated specific business capabilities and technology enablers to higher operational performance. For the purposes of this study, Aberdeen has evaluated and classified manufacturers based on three key performance indicators (KPI). Top performers are defined as the top 20% of performers and results show that leading companies are performing at the following levels:
- 88% Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE); 75% for Laggards
- 2% unscheduled asset downtime; 18% for Laggards
- 25% Return on Assets (RoA) versus plan; -10% for Laggards
"The results indicated that CFOs of leading companies are more than 60% as likely as others to have goals around risk management in the next year," says Mehul Shah, Research Analyst. "Top performing companies are effectively implementing an APM strategy by fostering a culture of collaboration across functional groups, implementing a risk management framework, creating real-time visibility into the asset base and establishing advanced asset management capabilities."
