What parts inventory is and why it matters.
Inventory Basics
Parts inventory is the stock of spare parts and consumables your maintenance depends on. Manage it well and the right part is there when you need it; manage it poorly and work stalls waiting on supply.
The Core Ideas
- Parts — what you stock, with SKU and specs
- Quantities — on-hand, on-order, committed
- Locations — where each part lives
Tips
Start with your fastest-moving parts. The 20% of parts used in 80% of work orders deserve the most attention.
