In 2020, the ALN prepared the Advancing Equity with Asset Leadership position paper to highlight the value of ISO 55001 4.2 – identifying relevant stakeholders and learning their requirements – and the other places stakeholders are mentioned.

Every 2 years for decades, the GAO has issued a High Risk List — those federal programs that are at highest risk of fraud, waste, abuse, or mismanagement. Federal asset management has been on that list for 18 years in the form of federal real property management. It’s still on the list this year, but it is not a broken record. This year, GAO removed one of the four areas from the list while another area regressed a little. What improved? What worsened? What does it all mean for asset management?
