Unfortunately, most organizations encounter difficulties in achieving effective maintenance planning and execution. In addition, they usually have poor storeroom management, leading to shortages of some materials and surpluses of others.
Even though they are support activities, maintenance and inventory planning have a direct impact on the company's results and need to be given due attention. Having equipment in good condition is what determines whether or not a company has the capacity to deliver orders and generate revenue. Likewise, keeping unnecessary materials in stock while having to urgently buy parts to get a machine working causes relevant operational impacts.
In this article, Jeff Shiver provides an overview of this reality while showing how to solve the biggest problems. He also shares important tips on how to improve the relationship between areas and align processes with company goals and achieve continuous improvement.
