Get Your Whole Team on the ‘Same Page’

Topic Area: Online Boot Camp

• Improve your team’s spare parts management coordination.
• Give everyone the same insight for spare parts management.
• Reduce the ‘friction’ inherent in implementing change.

 
Without understanding this, and the implications, companies continue to experience:

• ‘Emotion’ based decision making that leads to overstocking.
• Excessive obsolete inventory caused by a failure to recognize the need to manage these holdings.
• Poor coordination and planning interaction that leads to high expediting costs, or worse, missed maintenance ‘windows’.
• Operational silos and ‘finger pointing’.

But it doesn’t have to be like this.

Our Spare Parts Management Online Boot Camp is a team based training program that can put all your team members on the same page.

By giving your team equal access to our content you equip them with the know-how and skills to better coordinate their activity and more effectively manage all aspects of spare parts inventory.

Your entire team can learn what they need and do so with a ‘single source of truth’.

This course addresses the four issues that teams find most challenging:

Identifying what to stock
Our ‘planning horizon’, 7 questions, and identifying critical inventory approaches make it clear what you should, and should not, hold in your inventory.

Deciding how many to stock
Using a simple, clear, and immediately useable approach anyone can determine the right holding level in just a few minutes.

Identifying and implementing best practice
Through extensive research we have identified the 7 best practices that make a real difference to your results.

Minimizing disposal and obsolescence
With both ‘first-time-buy’ and ‘end-of-life’ management we show you how to avoid getting stuck with inventory you don’t want or need

This is an intensive, instructor led, 100% online, group or team training program that teaches participants the fundamentals of spare parts inventory management.

Live Online Sessions:

• The course involves 4 interactive live online sessions over 4 consecutive weeks.
• Each week there is a 90-minute, live on-line session with the course facilitator, Phillip Slater.

Weekly Individual Study:

• Each module consists of reading, videos, and exercises. The participants review this content before each online session.
• Expected ‘homework’ time averages at approximately 60-90 minutes per week.
• The online session then acts as a tutorial to clarify understanding and answer questions.

Online Group Discussion

• The participants can engage in a discussion with other participants, and they can ask questions of the course facilitator.
• This enables them to reach a common understanding of the issues and solutions.

Extensive Workbook:

• There is a 26-page workbook to guide students through the course that includes all the exercises.
• The workbook also helps participants develop a personal action plan for execution in your business.

Assessment

• Students that attend all four sessions will receive a certificate acknowledging their participation.
