IBM MRO Inventory Optimization
Uncover a clearer, more accurate view of your inventory with this cloud-based optimisation platform specifically designed for the distinct challenges of MRO asset-intensive environments.
Make informed inventory decisions that improve margins and minimise unplanned downtime.
When the supply of the tools, spare parts and consumables needed to operate and maintain assets is optimised, organisations enjoy substantial cost savings and operational efficiencies. With as much as 50% of unscheduled downtime attributable to a lack of spare parts or stockouts, optimising MRO inventory is not an opportunity that asset-intensive organisations should be prepared to ignore.
