MRO Spare Parts and Storeroom Management is one of the most neglected maintenance strategies in the majority of industries which should not be the case. While others say that this is the missing link to any reliability and maintenance strategy.

One of the most if not the most important KPI for the storeroom is Inventory Accuracy. This book explains why most problematic storerooms have a low Inventory Accuracy. This results in a Domino of problems in the storeroom.

From the Inside Flap

I wrote this book to share the most common problems and solutions on MRO Spare Parts and Storeroom. I agree with what most consultants say that MRO Spare Parts and Storeroom is one of the most neglected functions of any maintenance organization, which should not be the case. Others say that this is the missing link to any reliability and maintenance improvement strategy. Almost every type of industry, whether manufacturing, processing, pharmaceutical, power plants, mining, construction, or aviation, has a storeroom in place for them to keep their spare parts.

The items inside the storeroom can range from 1,000 for a small-scale industry to more than 200,000 parts or even more for large-scale industry. All industries have a place to store and keep spares for their equipment, which is needed for repairs, and Preventive Maintenance activities, but not all industries have knowledge on how to manage their storeroom and spare parts. In fact, MRO storeroom and spare parts are some of the strategies where maintenance can truly save costs big time. In other industries, the problems with MRO Spare Parts are chronic and may have been existing for decades. If industries are serious about improving their storeroom and finding the correct solutions for their MRO Spare Parts and Storeroom, this book is a must-read not only for storekeepers but also for maintenance, purchasing, finance, and especially the c-level people to find out what they are missing. This book is composed of 12 chapters.
