Founder and Principal, Mark De Clercq has over 30 years of civil engineering and project management experience, of which over half of that journey has been an aggressive maturation and application of Asset Management.
Throughout his career, clients and senior leaders relied on Mark for his big-picture strategic thinking, teamwork approach, and business-oriented ability to bring transformative solutions to complex problems. As Top Manager and City Engineer for the City of Grand Rapids, Michigan, he was responsible for a multi-billion-dollar infrastructure network, which like many, was aged, historically underinvested, and contained a lot of uncertain risk. Additionally, Mark began sharing his knowledge in the form of presentations at various conferences and co-authoring papers with the IAM. He was also adjunct professor teaching Asset Management at Western Michigan University's College of Engineering and has recently been appointed as an Adjunct Professor of Practice at Michigan Technological University. Mark retired from public life to start Applied Asset Management Consultants, inspiring and educating organizations to grow and apply Asset Management for themselves.
