Successful predictive spare part management will include the collection and analysis of data, the ability for managers to see the operation as hole in which they foresee underlying problems and find solutions.<\/p>\n<h3>Inventory Control<\/h3>\n<p>Don\u2019t think that your spare part inventory has to be all-encompassing to be effective. In reality that is an unrealistic goal to achieve.\u00a0 Instead develop an inventory that is categorized by priority.\u00a0 Recognize parts that can be used for more than one purpose, those that are critical to your operation, and those critical to a specific piece of machinery.\u00a0 This needs to be revaluated on a regular basis to make sure that as new machinery is introduced they aren\u2019t forgotten.<\/p>\n<p>J &amp; P Electrical Company is a full-service electrical company that supplies contractors, end users, and supply houses with new surplus, quality reconditioned, and obsolete electrical equipment.
