The Asset & Operations team is part of the Advisory Services Portfolio in Arup. We help clients solve business and operational challenges, make informed decisions and implement better, more sustainable solutions.
We are engineers, business strategists, logisticians, planners, asset consultants, and innovation experts, and work hand in hand with Arup's range of technical experts, developing multi-disciplinary insights and opportunities that other consultants miss. We focus on people, technology & systems, processes and detailed knowledge of their physical assets, to implement solutions that encompass sustainability and innovation.
Sitting at the intersection between the built environment and the people who use and experience it, we advise and deliver solutions for asset-intensive client organisations operating in the UK and beyond in a wide range of markets including Energy, Highways, Aviation, Rail, Science and Industry, Property, Water and Healthcare.
