Introduction

Concepts

Risks

Risks module in AIH allows to capture and systematically store all risks associated with the uncertainty of system or component failures. In asset integrity management, this information is effectively used to execute risk-based maintenance strategy as well as finanical planning.

According to ISO 31000, risk is defined as "the effect of uncertainty on objectives" whereas risk management is "coordinated activities to direct and control and organization with regard to risk".

Risk assessments

According to ISO 31000, Risk assessment is the overall process of risk identification, risk analysis and risk evaluation.

In AIH, Risk assessment is enabled via an iterative, systematic, and collaborative process, which is built on the knowledge and views of stakeholders as well as knowledge created through data with a more quantitative view on an assessment.

Risk mitigations

AIH enables risk managers to specify the mitigative action that can be used to mitigate a risk.

Defining Risk Population and Population Item

The list of assets that are sensitive to a given risk can be grouped into on Risk population(s). To define the risk population(s), the user needs to first specify the asset type(s), for which the risk is relevant for. It may be the case that the same risk is applicable for multiple asset types, therefore for multiple populations.

Properties

As any other object in AIH, Risks consists of core information model and some additional properties that the user can specify himself/herself.
