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.
