Scientific Maintenance Spare Parts Management

Theme

Planning and controlling the maintenance spare parts becomes a very complex task as the number of parts increase with time and variety of equipments are added to the plant.

In majority of the cases the problem is compounded as more popular techniques suitable for fast moving production items are sought to be used for spares. Spare parts require definitely a different approach which takes into account criticality and plans availability according to criticality. Spare parts manager has to recognize importance of identification and hence the complexity of codification, lifecycle of an equipment and cost implication of the decisions related to stocking. The spare parts supplies by an equipment manufacturer is the other side of coin which has concerns of several business related issues like warranty cover, distribution, product lifecycle, design changes and cost of service. Understanding of the issues would allow one to develop a robust and logical policy and procedure to manage the spare parts service.

The program is designed to bring up all the issues to develop a comprehensive perspective for the same.
 

Program Schedule: Day 1: 9-00AM to 5-15PM+

 Introduction

Participants and faculty introduce themselves and issues of participants interest are listed
