Introduction to corrosion risk management
To manage corrosion for a site or an asset, it’s vital to have a good plan.
We’ve developed the ICE Flow process, a proven framework which creates a sensible, data-driven corrosion risk management plan that allows you to prioritise work and resources and allows you to manage it over the long-term. This process has been developed from best practices across industries.
Core elements of the ICE flow framework
- Corrosion risk assessment and prioritized management is at the core of the framework, which also puts emphasis on high quality, quantitative data collection.
- Integrating corrosion management into the organisation is key to sustainable success.
- The program is linked to key business objectives and informs budget, resource and risk planning.
