SAN RAMON, CA, September 15, 2012 (Press-News.org) In the article titled, "The Untapped Value of Asset Management", Dieter writes, "We can think of an organisation as needing three things to function - money, people and assets. Untapped value existing in money and people has been given much attention over the years. Oddly, assets have not, until now, received this same consideration." Dieter's approach to realising value benefits starts by recognising three disciplines of asset management: asset portfolio management, asset assurance management and asset performance management, each with a corresponding economic discipline.
