In today’s complex and rapidly evolving global security environment, military organizations face unprecedented challenges in sustaining operational readiness while ensuring cost-efficiency and compliance. Enterprise Asset Management in Defence presents a comprehensive guide to managing defence assets—from infrastructure and fleets to weapons systems and IT platforms—through a structured, technology-enabled approach that aligns with mission-critical objectives.

This book explores how modern Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) frameworks can support lifecycle management, improve decision-making, and drive value across defence operations. Drawing from international best practices, real-world case studies, and defense-specific applications, the book details the strategic integration of people, processes, and digital technologies (such as IoT, AI, and predictive analytics) to maximize asset performance and availability while reducing total ownership costs.

Readers will gain insights into key topics including:

• The fundamentals of EAM tailored for military and defense environments
• Lifecycle planning for high-value and mission-critical assets
• Digital transformation and the role of ERP/EAM platforms like SAP, IBM Maximo, and Oracle
• Risk management, cybersecurity, and regulatory compliance in asset operations
• Maintenance strategies: from condition-based maintenance (CBM) to predictive maintenance (PdM)
• Integration of supply chain and logistics with asset operations
• Performance metrics and KPIs in defence EAM
• Governance models for centralized vs. decentralized defence asset oversight

Written for defence project managers, asset lifecycle specialists, engineers, policy makers, and IT professionals, this book bridges the gap between traditional asset stewardship and modern enterprise-level asset optimization. Whether you’re involved in managing naval vessels, air platforms, land vehicles, or defence facilities, Enterprise Asset Management in Defence offers the tools and insights needed to modernize practices, enhance resilience, and support readiness across the force.
