# Asset management as seen by SYSTRA and Usbek & Rica

![Asset management as seen by SYSTRA and Usbek & Rica](https://www.systra.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/20220603-cahier-asset-site-web-en-hd_cd-1.jpg)

In our sector, asset management aims to maintain the operational performance of
a transport infrastructure throughout its life cycle, by investing responsibly
from the outset to improve the cost-performance-risk balance. Based on the
ability to anticipate, asset management helps to avoid additional costs during
the maintenance and operation of the infrastructure.

In a new 30-page illustrated booklet, SYSTRA explores all the facets of asset
management – financial, operational, technological and organisational – over and
above its accounting dimension.
In order to cover the whole subject, we have:

- Interviewed the players in the ecosystem (infrastructure managers, operators,
  maintainers, public authorities, concessionaires and investment funds,
  solution providers, etc.)
- Questioned the definition of asset management, its purpose, its effects, its
  levers, its capacity to make actors collaborate, its relationship with
  technological innovations…

> For a more sustainable management of assets, we must first know them, then
> understand them, and finally confront them with a multitude of scenarios in
> order to make informed decisions at the right time. This requires an in-depth
> knowledge of the assets that we want to sustain, and a good understanding of
> the possible causes of deterioration. Asset management is therefore much more
> than a method: it is a dialogue.
> Ghita Khettab, Head of Asset Management, SYSTRA France

> “After ‘Les Futurs du métro’ and ‘MaaS’, we are continuing our collaboration
> with Usbek & Rica magazine to decipher the complex subject of asset
> management. With this new issue, we want to illustrate the wealth of issues
> and opportunities, both to our clients and partners and to our employees, with
> a view to the sustainability of transport infrastructures.
