The objective of this paper is to identify factors for successful implementation of asset management systems by reviewing studies of implementation of asset management tools in foreign countries. First, this research begins by reviewing implementation cases in foreign countries to capture processes, needed resources and strategies to deal with problems, and benefits. Then, the paper summarizes practices in the US and compare the US's experiences to the experiences in foreign countries to capture the factors required for successful implementation in the US. The paper, finally, explores a direction for successful implementation and addresses future needs to deal with the barriers.
