Case Study on the Costs of Buffing

Buffing is the removal of a tire before it is necessary.

...

Minimum Allowable Tread Depth by US Law
Steering axles		4/32”
2/32”
Annual Cost of Using Full Allowable Tread vs. Buffing
Fleet of 100 trailers—each unit travels 75,000 miles/year
Average trailer tire tread depth from retreader – 6/32”
Assume a cost of retread of $150 less $35 for case (at end) gives you $115 for 14/32” of usable tread
Assume 10,000 miles per 1/32”
If tires are removed at 5/32” (rather than the allowable 2/32”) then 3/23” usable tread (or 21% of the capacity) is lost.
Total Tire-Miles per Year	75,000 miles per year x 100 trailers x 8 tires per trailer		60,000,000
Total Tread Consumed (in 1/32) per Year	60,000,000 tire miles 10,000 miles per 1/32"		6000
Average Cost (per 1/32) of Tread by Using Full Allowable Tread	$115 per tire 14 usable 32 ^nds		$8.21
Average Cost (per 1/32) of Tread when Buffing 3/32 of Usable Tread	$115 per tire 11 usable 32 ^nds		$10.45
Annual Cost Using Full Allowable Tread	6000 x $8.21		$49,260
Annual Cost with 3/32 Buffing	6000 x $10.45		$62,700
Yearly Savings with Use of Full Allowable Tread	$62,700 - $49,260		$13,440

Normalization of Deviance and the Perception of Defects

Ever walk into a room, look around and conclude that all is well. But then, someone picks up papers, a briefcase, or some other object from the floor, right where you were about to walk. You hadn’t seen it. Your vision is fine, so how could you have missed it? It makes you wonder how many other little things you missed in other places, too.

Be a Better Buyer with Closed Loop MRO Purchasing

You can tell a lot about a maintenance organization by observing how it purchases and consumes repair parts. Reactive organizations only seem to have time to “keep it running.” They don’t have time to shop for the best deals. Instead, they send the same noncompetitive purchase orders to the same vendors and take whatever pricing they get. And their receiving dock looks like a major courier service depot – full of emergency shipments. Cycle counts are mysteriously high because received parts aren’t always checked into inventory. Or, cycle counts are mysteriously low because parts are not always checked out of inventory and/or are lost to theft.
