Spare parts inventory optimization

Reducing Inventories. Increasing Availability.

Manufacturing companies have high spare parts inventories to be able to react in the event of a machine failure. This is reflected in high costs for procurement and warehousing, even though 42% of all spare parts are never used and end up scrapped. With reliable data at hand, spare parts inventory can be optimized without having any availability risks.

How to safely reduce spare parts inventories?

SPARETECH identifies synergies at the push of a button. In the first step, SPARETECH's solution ensures transparency by uniquely identifying spare parts through state-of-the-art technologies from the fields of semantic data management, Big Data and automated data processing. In the second step, duplicates, discontinuations and common parts across locations are made visible and original manufacturer product information is added. The result is a complete and error-free database.
