Designed as a short, intensive session, the workshop explores the different levels of asset management awareness and maturity in organisations today — from initial awareness to more structured, advanced practices. Participants will gain clarity on their organisation's current position and identify practical next steps toward value-driven asset management.

Key topics include:

• Fundamental principles of asset management and ISO 55000 – Janez Tomažin

• The role of maintenance and reliability within asset management – Janez Tomažin

• Asset management maturity and capability levels – Martin Kerr (Convenor of ISO 55001)

• Value-based decision-making considering risk, cost, and performance – Martin Kerr

• Training, certification, and Continuing Professional Development (CPD) –Rob Childs (Chair of WPiAM)

• Real-world examples from European industry and infrastructure – Giel Jurgens (Asset Owner at the Port of Rotterdam).

The workshop is aimed at professionals in maintenance, reliability, engineering, and asset management, as well as managers seeking a clear, business-oriented understanding of asset management without heavy theory or compliance focus.

This session is ideal for organisations looking to boost asset management awareness, align technical and business teams, and implement a practical, value-focused approach to asset management.

Railway Asset Maintenance  Workshop – Driving Reliability, Efficiency and Sustainability

Thursday, June 25 | 13:00–16:00

This industry-focused workshop, led by Prof. Uday Kumar, Leader of the EFNMS Railway Maintenance Committee and Dr. Veronica Jägare, Director of the Luleå Railway Research Center, brings together key stakeholders from the railway sector to explore modern approaches to asset maintenance under increasing operational and environmental challenges.

Railway systems are under growing pressure to improve reliability, availability, and cost efficiency while managing aging infrastructure, increasing traffic demand, and climate-related impacts. At the same time, digital technologies are enabling new opportunities for smarter, data-driven maintenance.

This workshop provides a practical platform for operators, infrastructure managers, service providers, and technology experts to exchange experiences and solutions.

Key topics include:

• Railway asset reliability and availability challenges in modern operations

• Condition monitoring and data-driven maintenance strategies

• Digital twins, AI, and Industrial IoT applications in railway systems

• Integration of legacy systems and data quality challenges

• Lifecycle cost optimization and decision-making under uncertainty

• Case studies from European and Nordic railway systems (e.g. Trafikverket, Talgo)

The session will combine short industry presentations, panel discussions, and open dialogue, focusing on real-world implementation and collaboration opportunities.

This workshop is ideal for professionals involved in railway operations, infrastructure, maintenance, and digital transformation seeking practical insights and industry best practices.

LOTOTO  Workshop – Safety, Standards and Practice in Maintenance Operations

Thursday, June 25 | 13:00–16:00

This workshop, led by Jan Teun Koningen, Leader of the EFNMS European Health, Safety and Environment Committee (EHSEC), focuses on the critical role of Lock-Out Tag-Out (LOTOTO) procedures in ensuring safety during maintenance and operational activities.

LOTOTO is a fundamental safety practice to prevent hasardous energy release, yet its implementation varies widely across industries and organisations. This session provides a structured and practical overview, combining standards, real-world applications, and human factors.

The workshop brings together experts in safety, standardisation, and industrial practice to provide a comprehensive perspective—from regulatory frameworks to on-site implementation.

Key topics include:

• The role of LOTOTO within maintenance and asset management

• Overview of European standards and regulatory frameworks (EN standards)

• Historical evolution and alignment with international safety practices

• Behavioral and organizational aspects of LOTOTO implementation

• Digitalization and future trends in safety procedures

• Practical demonstration and case examples (including LOTOTO board/demo)

The workshop combines expert presentations, interactive discussion, and practical examples to support knowledge exchange and best practice sharing.

This session is ideal for professionals in maintenance, safety, operations, and engineering who are responsible for ensuring safe working conditions and improving safety culture in industrial environments.
