This page outlines BOTI’s asset management training: what an asset management course should cover (asset registers and the link to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), lifecycle costs, maintenance, disposal and stock control), who it suits, and how to book the two-day course for your team. Asset and stock control training sits with our other administration and office support courses for teams that keep registers, records and procedures in order.
Good asset management is how an organisation gets a proper return on its buildings, its equipment and even its intellectual property. It also means working through asset registers, financial reporting standards and lifecycle costs, which many teams find complex. BOTI’s asset management training course gives delegates practical knowledge and methods they can apply to their own registers and procedures.
What the asset management course covers
The asset management training programme is built around five areas.
Asset registers and accountability
- Make sense of asset registers and how to manage them in practice.
- Improve accountability and responsibility for every asset.
- Understand the link between asset management and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
Asset performance and lifecycle costs
- Reduce total lifecycle costs through better maintenance practices.
- Track spare parts, plan equipment and manage disposals effectively.
Regulation, policy and risk
- Keep up to date with regulations and policy developments that affect asset management.
- Keep improving your organisation’s asset and risk management directives.
Asset management plan and technology
- Develop an asset management plan that suits your organisation’s needs.
- Identify and implement the asset technology that supports your asset management practices.
Fixed assets and stock
- Understand the differences between fixed assets and stock in a business unit.
- See how stock management affects your organisation’s profitability.
- Apply the principles of fixed asset management to improve the performance of a business unit.
Who should attend asset management training
The course suits:
- Facility managers

Asset management beyond engineering
Asset management is often associated with engineering and with maximising the return on physical assets, but the principles in this course apply across a much wider range of industries. Managing intangible assets such as intellectual property well can also give an organisation a significant competitive advantage.
