Determine Your Critical Assets
Organizations can adopt several approaches to determine asset criticality depending on whether they are focusing on operational and business impacts based on the total cost of ownership approach. A total cost of ownership approach enables organizations to evaluate the financial impact throughout the asset lifecycle and prioritise decisions accordingly. By doing so, organizations can allocate resources more effectively, ensuring that high-criticality assets—those with the most significant business impact — receive the necessary attention.

Asset Health Indices with Constellation Energy
Asset Health Indexing (AHI) is a measure of the condition and future performance of an asset and indicates how close the asset may be to the end of its useful life.
