Every facilities team has lived through the same budget-cycle ambush: a capital request lands out of nowhere for an asset that, in hindsight, had been sending warning signs for months. The gap usually isn't a lack of data — it's a lack of a structured way to turn asset condition, age, and cost history into a capital plan that finance actually trusts.

The Facility Asset Lifecycle Management and Capital Planning Strategies training course, delivered by Arab British Fellowship Training Academy, closes that gap. Participants learn to price an asset's full life with lifecycle costing, judge the right moment for asset replacement against ongoing repair, and translate condition and maintenance data into CAPEX plans that hold up when questioned by leadership and finance.

Who Should Attend?

• Facilities and asset managers who own capital planning decisions
• Maintenance leads whose data feeds into capital requests
• Asset and reliability engineers
• Finance professionals reviewing facilities capital spend
