Asset optimisation with AIM
Optimising infrastructure assets is about more than cutting cost. It’s about making the best possible use of limited resources while maintaining service, reducing risk, and planning for the future. But with complex networks, competing priorities, and mounting pressure from regulators and stakeholders, that’s easier said than done.
AIM helps organisations identify the asset-level strategies that deliver maximum value, balancing cost, performance and risk in ways that are fully transparent and easy to justify.
How AIM enables more effective asset optimisation.
AIM transforms business challenges into powerful mathematical models that test and compare thousands, even billions, of investment strategies.
By capturing real-world constraints, performance goals, cost parameters and deterioration profiles, AIM identifies which interventions deliver the best return on investment over time.
Unlike traditional planning tools that rely on averages or cohort groupings, AIM models at the level of the individual asset. It allows organisations to pinpoint exactly when, where and how to act, and to quantify the impact of doing so.
Whether you’re planning long-term capital renewal or short-term operational maintenance, AIM helps you make confident, data-driven decisions that maximise value and minimise regret.
With AIM, optimisation is simply better.
Optimise at the level of individual assets or any aggregation above.

In practice: real-world use
AIM’s optimisation engine has been used to manage investment strategies covering over 100,000 km of UK gas mains, balancing environmental impact, delivery constraints and long-term resilience to meet business and regulatory objectives.
Why better asset optimisation matters.
With budgets under pressure and expectations increasing, you now need to do more with less, and prove the value of every pound or dollar spent.
AIM gives you the tools to make confident decisions today that create better outcomes tomorrow.
