ISO 55,001 and GFMAM Gap analysis provides our clients with an assessment of their current maturity against the recognised standards and framework. A gap analysis is intended to provide a basis for developing improvement programmes for an asset management system. This is often part of a programme to achieve a certificate of conformance but can also be used for continual improvement beyond the level described as competent in the IAM’s maturity scale. We're formally endorsed by the IAM to deliver these services to our clients which is backed up by our AM Audit Management System to ensure quality at every turn.
ISO55,001 certification services delivers a comprehensive review and assessment of the level of conformity against ISO55001. If the requisite level across all requirements is achieved, a certificate of conformity may be awarded. Our IAM Endorsed Assessor status provides our clients confidence that both the outcomes and the recommendations are aligned to industry and sector better practice.
To back this up, we have a comprehensive AM Audit Management Policy and Manual which ensures quality at every turn.
we work hard to deliver incredible value to our clients.



Risk Mitigation
Regular audits help identify inefficiencies and areas for improvement, leading to enhanced asset performance and reliability. By systematically addressing issues, organisations can maximise the value derived from their assets.
Cost Reduction
Audits uncover opportunities for cost savings through optimised maintenance schedules, reduced downtime, and better resource allocation. This can result in significant reductions in operational and maintenance costs.
Risk Mitigation
Identifying potential risks and vulnerabilities in the asset management system allows organisations to implement proactive measures to mitigate these risks. This leads to fewer unexpected failures and improved safety and compliance.
Enhanced Compliance
Audits ensure that asset management practices align with relevant standards and regulations, such as ISO 55001. This not only aids in achieving certification but also demonstrates a commitment to best practices and continuous improvement.
Informed Decision Making
Detailed audit reports provide valuable insights and data, enabling informed decision-making regarding asset investments, lifecycle management, and strategic planning. This helps organisations to align their asset management strategies with their overall business goals.

The endorsement covers the assessment of asset management systems against ISO 55001 and PAS 55, and good practice assessment against the IAM Anatomy and GFMAM Landscape subjects. It does not cover consultancy, analytics, reliability engineering, software or training, so we never present it as endorsing those services.
Most organisations start with a gap analysis against the standard, close the priority gaps, run internal audits and a management review, and then engage a certification body. A maturity assessment alongside the gap analysis helps show how embedded the system is, not just whether the documents exist.
ISO 55001:2024 is the current international standard that sets the requirements for an asset management system. It covers the context of the organisation, leadership, planning, support, operation, performance evaluation and improvement, so assets deliver value throughout their lifecycle.
No. Under the IAM scheme, if we consult on developing your asset management system we cannot later carry out your certification audit. That separation protects the independence of certification, so we will always tell you up front which role we are playing.
A gap analysis shows where your asset management system meets ISO 55001 and where it falls short, so you can close the gaps. A certification audit is the formal assessment of whether the system conforms to the standard. Most organisations complete a gap analysis before seeking certification.
It means the Institute of Asset Management has independently endorsed SAS-AM as competent to assess asset management systems. SAS Asset Management is endorsed for both gap analysis and certification against ISO 55001, and is one of only three IAM Endorsed Assessors headquartered in Australia, out of 37 worldwide.
