DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "MRO Inventory & Critical Spares Management Optimization" training has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
This 3-day course will help attendees learn proven strategies on how they can improve and optimize their spare parts and storeroom. This might be the missing link in improving your reliability and maintenance strategy.
Most if not all industries have a storeroom to keep parts of their equipment they need from time to time but not all these industries have the knowledge or know how to manage their storeroom and spare parts. In fact, the Storeroom and Spare Parts is one of the functions on where maintenance can save on cost and almost every industry have a horrible story to tell on their storeroom that they have experience. With the absence of a sound strategy on spare parts, most of us rely on the vendor on what to stock which ends up as non-moving most of the time.
