Reliability and the MRO Supply Chain: 4 Essential Tools

Many companies continue to struggle with the maintenance, repair and operations (MRO) issue by ignoring or at least tolerating the existence of the MRO storeroom and the necessary operations around it. Few companies work to improve the MRO function in the supply chain and some do not even consider MRO storeroom management as part of plant operations at all. Others are striving to strike a balance in managing MRO.

Fixing the Broken Model of Equipment Maintenance for African Farms

For a variety of reasons including food security and a desire to become independent of reliance on oil revenue, several nations in Africa and elsewhere (e.g. Azerbaijan) are working hard to increase agriculture production. However, their efforts are hampered by the fact that the traditional model for the provision equipment maintenance does not work for these countries. TractorExport's new model that features mobile mechanics and just in time parts inventory supply is changing the game for African farms. TractorExport will explain next about the new model and real-world impact.

Solving the Mystery of Integrated Supply for MRO: What Is It? What Is It NOT?

It is becoming increasingly evident that the lack of world-class support from the maintenance, repair and operations (MRO) stores is having a significant and detrimental effect on maintenance reliability programs. Fill rates (i.e., availability of needed parts from stores) average less than 75 percent. This means the availability factor of parts needed is not reliable. A reliable plant requires all functions in maintenance’s lean reliability programs to be reliable. Since availability of parts needed is a component of the reliability program, an unreliable MRO storeroom becomes detrimental to reliability goals.
