About HolisticAM

The people who ran reliability inside the majors.

HolisticAM is a reliability engineering and asset management consultancy serving heavy industry across Australia — run by engineers who held the maintenance budget, not just written a report about it.

Who we are

Founded on-site, not in a boardroom

HolisticAM started in 2017, and we have been doing one thing since: making assets perform for the people who have to run them.

We are not advisers who read about your plant in a report. We have held the maintenance budget, defended it, and lived with what happened when the strategy was wrong. When we walk your site, we have walked one like it before.

DA

Dave Alexander

Managing Director

Thirty years in mining and heavy industry took Dave through reliability and maintenance roles inside Rio Tinto, BHP, Alcoa and MMG. He holds a Master of Maintenance and Reliability from Monash University and is a former Chair of the Victorian Asset Management Council.

He built HolisticAM on a simple premise: reliability run by people who maintained the assets, not advised from the outside.

Where most clients start

The Reliability Assessment

It answers the question every site asks and few can prove: which of your failures are preventable, and what are they costing you each year? A fixed piece of work with a clear output — you get the evidence first, and what happens next is your call.

Two things nobody else in Australia can offer
