Telling the asset consumption story in simple, effective, big-picture terms sets the stage for LOS discussion and business risk based decisionmaking. Associated Techniques: Valuation techniques Net Present Value Optimized replacement cost tables Optimized portfolio-wide, life-cycle financial projections Capital investment strategies Telling the story with confidence Fundamentals of Asset Management 18
