Efficient maintenance thanks to SPARETECH's MRO software

Time-consuming & inefficient processes in maintenance

  • 1. Inefficient search for MRO spare parts
  • 2. Manual checks of BOM and spare parts lists
  • 3. Manual material creation in the ERP system
  • 4. Effort to compare and find MRO suppliers

1. Inefficient search for MRO spare parts

MRO spare parts search is lenghty, frustrating and ineffective in common ERP systems

Traditional ERP systems offer frustrating search experiences, requiring users to know specific properties like the article number. If this information is not at hand or the material master set is incorrect, users often don't find the spart parts even though they have it in stock.

2. Manual checks of BOM and spare parts lists

Checking Bill of Materials and Spare Parts Lists manually is time-intensive and prone to error.

Checking spare parts lists manually can be a time-consuming task, that takes up to 2 weeks net working time for a single person. Neglecting the checks can lead to excessive inventory and machine downtime due to missing spare parts.

3. Manual material creation in the ERP system

The manual creation of materials in the ERP System is often inefficient, lengthy and therefore unloved task

Adding new materials in the ERP system can be time-consuming, requiring to complete many form fields and check for duplicates. This manual process can take up to 20 minutes per part, making it an very inefficient task.

4. Effort to compare and find MRO suppliers

Inefficient manual supplier research is time-consuming and not comprehensive at all

Maintainer and Purchasers often interact on with each other to find a supplier that offers fast availability to the best price. This is not easy, as manual internet searches are time-consuming and do not offer the needed transparency.
