Get your maintenance data working better for you 28/11/2006
 
Inventory reductions of up to 20% in a vital but oft-neglected part of the business? Sounds too good to be true? Granted, typical savings are more likely to be in the region of 6%, but that’s still well worth having, so how can it be done? The answer is that while manufacturers have pared down raw material and work-in-progress inventories to a minimum, the spares they keep for maintenance, repair and operations (MRO) are almost always far less well managed. This is where these additional potential savings lie.
