December 14, 2011 CIEAM Conference
Each year CIEAM gathers its far-flung community to come together, network and compare notes on achievements for the preceding twelve months. The tradition has continued in 2011, with staff, participants and special guests of the centre congregating at Sheraton Noosa Resort for a three day symposium in the first week of November. The conference also incorporated the annual forum of the Australian Asset Management Collaborative Group (AAMCoG).

December 14, 2011 Launch of “The Guide”
The Guide to Integrated Strategic Asset Management was produced as the result of a collaboration between the Australian Asset Management Collaborative Group (AAMCoG) and CIEAM. Launched by the Chairman, Des Pearson during the AAMCoG annual forum at the 2011 CIEAM conference, the guide is based on the Australasian Procurement and Construction Council Inc.’s (APCC) publication, Asset Management 2001. It reflects advances in asset management since the previous guide was developed and aims to bring it in line with the contemporary asset management environment.

Taking over the role of current President Merv Lindsay on 1 January 2012, it’s probably no surprise to the CIEAM family that David plans to make sustainability one of the major themes of his presidency.

July 4, 2011 Research forum
Each year CIEAM undertakes a comprehensive review of each of the projects currently in progress within the auspices of the centre.

This year CIEAM is bringing together all of our Program and Project Leaders for a winter retreat in sunny Brisbane to undertake 2011 project reviews as a research forum.
July 4, 2011 Education and training
Education and training continues to be a busy portfolio, with some key outputs being generated in this space. Post-graduate scholarships are now being finalised, with research topics including: estimation of power transformer remnant life; managing organisational culture for improved asset management performance; and development of a constitutive model for predicting the service life of pneumatic conveying pipelines.
July 4, 2011 Putting CIEAM in the spotlight
Have you ever mentioned CIEAM to colleagues, business partners, or even friends and family, only to receive blank looks? It’s probably not too surprising, given the niche area in which we operate, but it is a concern that our target markets don’t even know we exist. As we ramp up our efforts towards commercialisation, raising the profile of CIEAM has never been more important. There are a range of modes, means and channels for achieving this.
