Too often, asset management and capital project teams work in isolation, creating misaligned priorities, inefficiencies, and lost opportunities. By embedding asset management principles into project delivery, organisations can build assets that perform better, cost less over their lifecycle, and deliver sustainable value. In this presentation, I’ll share my experiences from the mining sector where engineering, strategy, and asset management converged. From value engineering and brownfields development to handling shifting schedules and stakeholder demands, I’ll demonstrate how collaboration between asset owners, asset managers, and project teams can drive smarter decisions and stronger long-term performance.
