The largest five hundred U.S.
corporations alone spend an estimated $148 billion on service parts.
With an investment of that magnitude,
instantaneous, accurate knowledge of availability, location, procurement, and
transport are extremely important.
Financial pressures to reduce inventory
investment mean that service parts organizations must be as efficient as
possible.
Until now, this sector of industry has
not received the attention it deserves. |
Anyone--from
novice to professional--who believes that their service parts organization needs
to operate more efficiently, will benefit from this book.
Readers are provided with standardized
terms, principles, and practices.
As an added benefit, case studies and
hands-on exercises that are used in actual training courses are presented.
Readers will understand concepts of
balancing labor and costs, applying life cycle cost and profit analysis, and
distinctive characteristics of parts necessary for maintenance services and
those needed for production.
The fundamental elements of planning ad
control are presented along with new concepts such as the Logistics Performance
Envelope. Service Parts Handbook is a product of the authors' decades of
experience in consulting, training and providing systems for commerce,
government, and industry. |
