COMPREHENSIVE ASSET MANAGEMENT PLAN
TASK SHEET
ASSET HIERARCHY
APPLICATION AND PURPOSE
Reference
Asset hierarchy management allows the tracking of all assets and their associated
locations using a family tree that forms relationships between physical locations, plant,
processes within plant and assets constitutes within it. These relationships facilitate data
collection and analysis for assets movement, maintenance and costs for individual assets,
a grouping of assets or a plant level.
3.3.5 to 3.3.7
For IWK, developing a sound asset hierarchy provides a logical record of all Asset
Maintenance Significant Equipment and a unique identifier for Operation and
Maintenance of that equipment. It also allows for the development and recording of
equipment maintenance / inspection history against a unique ID.
IWK CURRENT PRACTICE
Reference
IWK's current Asset Hierarchy has an asset tagging and hierarchy in place which is not
formally documented. However, the tagging system and the hierarchy are generally
considered adequate for the purpose of the CAMP.
IWK are assigning tags and include them in the hierarchy for equipment which is non-
maintainable. This is unnecessary causing cluttering of the IFS database resulting in
degraded system performance.
4.1
IWK RECOMMENDED PRACTICE
Reference
IWK to formally document their Asset Hierarchy, such as tagging procedure, codes
utilised in AIMS/IFS etc. Following, IWK should remove unnecessary tags from the IFS
database to allow for better system performance in line with the recommended hierarchy.

ITC REQUIREMENTS
Logical hierarchy in IFS.
Ability to search for equipment unique identifiers.
Ability to identify all equipment of a particular type at one or more locations.
CURRENT ITC CAPABILITIES
Logical hierarchy exists in IFS.
Search capability exists but is often slow.
Currently limited to searches in one location/asset only (TBC).
IWK ACTION PLAN
Timeframe Reference
Formally document IWK Asset Hierarchy development including
standard codes for IFS.
Short-term 5.1
Carry out an across-asset review once formal IWK Asset Hierarchy
document is developed, reviewed and approved. Ensure all locations
are adhering to formal guidelines and implement any changes as
necessary.
Short-term 5.1
As part of review above, remove or reclassify unnecessary items (see
below additional notes) that have been tagged to reduce IFS workload.
Short-term 5.1
3.3.3
IWK TRAINING REQUIREMENTS
IWK CAMP Manual Overview Training.
INITIAL CHAMPION ACTIVITIES
Reference
Develop IWK Asset Hierarchy Document. WorleyParsons suggests that IWK utilise the
attached high-level "Process Coordination Map" (PCM) as a starting point for their
ownership of Asset Hierarchy and develop their process and procedures.
5.1
ADDITIONAL/SUPPORT NOTES
A recommended list of unnecessary items currently contained in IFS would include:
- man hole covers (approximately 7,000 records in IFS with no maintenance actions; should be attached torespective sewer line and not be recorded individually)
- manually operated valves (generally not maintained, replacement on failure)
- process flow lines (currently not recorded and not required to do so)
- subcomponents of control panels (currently not recorded and not required to do so)
- small electrical equipment (such as light fittings, power sockets, fuse boards, etc; currently not recordedand not required to do so)
These should be in line with the hierarchy recommendations outlines in Sections 3.3.1 and 3.3.3 for
guidance, and based on table 3-1.
