In “Asset Performance Management – The Power of Threes!”  by Dan Moss, Sr. VP Consulting Operations at TRM, Moss explains how top-performing organizations achieve optimal asset performance by aligning three critical areas: people, processes, and technology. For executives, this alignment is essential to protect capital investments and drive measurable reliability and maintenance outcomes. Performance Consulting Associates works with leadership teams to ensure these elements support long-term asset performance and operational excellence.

Every asset has a finite life, and its performance can improve or decline based on how it is operated, maintained, and managed. Moss highlights that the reliability of a plant depends on each piece of equipment performing as expected. PCA helps organizations create Strategic Asset Management Plans (SAMPs) to define critical assets, lifecycle expectations, and maintenance priorities. This ensures executives have a clear roadmap to manage assets for maximum value.

Moss identifies Processes, Platform, and People as the first “three” areas that drive performance. Work management, inventory and stores, and reliability processes need to work within a strong CMMS or EAM platform. PCA adds expertise in change management and digital enablement, helping leadership teams use these platforms to capture accurate data, make informed decisions, and improve reliability.

The second and third “threes” focus on Management, Operations, and Maintenance, and how strategic, tactical, and technical responsibilities align across an organization. PCA guides executives in connecting high-level strategy to shop-floor execution, ensuring maintenance and reliability programs deliver measurable results. As Moss concludes, true asset performance is achieved when these three layers are aligned, making capital investments and innovations deliver the reliability and performance they were designed to achieve.

To turn the insights from “The Power of Threes” into measurable results, executives can leverage PCA’s expertise in Asset Performance Management, maintenance and reliability programs, and change management strategies.
