This study aims to fill a gap in the asset management literature by analysing the impact of asset inventory, legal audits, and asset valuation practices on asset optimization. The study involved 106 employees who participated in the completion of the questionnaire. The data was analysed using multiple regressions to test the proposed hypothesis. The results showed that asset inventory has a significant influence on asset optimisation. Asset inventory aims to ensure that company assets are recorded completely and accurately. A legal audit has a significant effect on asset optimisation. The implementation of legal audits to ensure regulatory asset control can increase asset optimisation. Asset valuation has a significant effect on asset optimisation. Consistent and proper asset valuation helps determine market value or tax needs. This research makes an empirical contribution to asset management theory, showing that planning, procurement, operation, and maintenance of assets are necessary to achieve optimisation. The findings provide a foundation for companies to balance policies and best practices to sustainably increase asset value. In addition, these findings are expected to be a reference for further research in the field of asset management and provide practical solutions for other companies facing similar problems.
