What’s the Difference Between Asset Integrity Management & Mechanical Integrity?
Asset Integrity Management
Asset integrity management (AIM) is a broad, comprehensive approach that balances costs, risks, and opportunities with asset performance to meet business objectives.
Best practice: develop the AIM capital project planning or the design stage to reduce costs and minimize risks.
Mechanical Integrity
Mechanical integrity (MI) is a subset of asset integrity management that focuses on an asset’s ability to perform its required function to prevent, detect, and/or mitigate a major hazardous event.
Best practice: develop the MI program during the design stage of an asset.
