Identifying critical spare parts is one of the most essential yet often misunderstood aspects of spare parts inventory management.
Many companies attempt to define criticality, but their criteria are often too narrow to be useful, misaligned with actual needs, or determined reactively—only after a problem arises.
To effectively manage MRO and critical spare parts inventory, you need a holistic approach that considers the full lifecycle of spare parts, from procurement to obsolescence.
This intensive two-day workshop provides the knowledge and tools needed to implement a best-in-class approach to MRO and critical spare parts management.
Through expert instruction, interactive exercises, and a 45-page workbook, you’ll learn how to:
✅ Understand the unique challenges of spare parts management
