If you have answered ‘no’ to any of the questions above, you may need an AMIS Assessment.

What is an AMIS Assessment?

For over 35 years, the AMIS Assessment has set the industry standard for benchmarking maintenance and asset management against best practices. Think of it as a health check for your operations, pinpointing gaps, opportunities, and the actions required to achieve peak performance.

Using a standard assessment system and defined maturity levels, the site-specific assessment is completed and includes inputs and involvement from maintenance, operations and selected site employees.

The AMIS Assessment can be used for both inter and intra-site comparisons for all industry sectors.

The AMIS Assessment provides the largest database of benchmarks and Key Performance Ratios for the efficiency and effectiveness of companies worldwide.
