Asset Data Management Manual (ADMM)

The ADMM sets out Highways England’s asset data requirements to achieve both its corporate objectives as well as its asset management objectives. It brings clarity and consistency to reflect our asset data needs and is revised every six months to accommodate changes and expansion to the business needs.

The ADMM contains the company’s asset data requirements to ensure the company collects and maintains the asset data it needs to operate safely and efficiently. It is for use by anyone creating, maintaining or using data on behalf of or within Highways England. It is composed of three documents:

Additionally a Revision Log and Change Request Submission Form are provided with each new version of the ADMM.
