Materials and Storeroom Management


Duration: 3 Days | Price: $1,295 | Class Dates: See bottom of this page


Description: The role of Materials Management is a critical support function in the maximization of equipment reliability and the execution of proactive maintenance. On average, 30% of a maintenance budget is spent on MRO parts thus the economic impact of poor materials management practices can be significant.

In order to reduce your stock-outs, lower your carrying costs, improve the efficiency of your warehouse staff, increase the accuracy of your inventory and reduce the failure rate due to damaged parts, implementing Materials Best Practices is a must.

In this 3-day intense workshop you will learn how vendors and their ratings play an important part and how to monitor their performance; how establishing functional KPIs is critical and configuration and control of your storeroom imperative. Plus a great deal more.

Through case studies and exercises you will understand the principles, techniques, tools and processes essential to the execution of successful material management program. In addition, you will gain a broad range of organizational skills; storeroom layout, reorders, performance metrics and follow-up.
