EUREKA Macro seminar focuses on risk
11 May 2000 - 11 May 2000
The Eureka-funded 'Macro seminar' in London on 11 May 2000 will provide a detailed explanation and practical demonstration of risk-based methods for the management of physical assets developed by the MACRO project.
'MACRO has produced an innovative approach to the management of fixed assets', says Eureka.
A number of successful European companies pooled their resources to develop new tools and techniques to help improve European companies' competitiveness in the global markets. According to Eureka, the new methodology enables companies to save on costs, improve their risk management and make better overall asset management decisions.
The project collaborators will present papers and case studies at the seminar. Each of these will show the corporate perspective and the engineering/operational solutions achieved. Plenary sessions will address the core topics of capital investment, operating and maintenance of assets, inventory and purchasing issues. An accompanying exhibition will demonstrate some of the MACRO consortium's achievements.
'The seminar will provide a wealth of information to senior managers responsible for making strategic decisions which affect the future of their businesses. The seminar will be of vital interest to chief executives, managing directors, asset managers, finance directors, directors of operations and production, and other senior managers,' say the event organisers.
The seminar is sponsored by the UK Department of Trade and Industry and leading UK companies and institutions including the Confederation of British Industry (CBI).
