MANUFACTURING & ENGINEERING

Tools, spares and PPE where production depends on them.

THE CHALLENGE

Where downtime and duplicate spend begin

Tools without owners

Tools leave the crib and are not returned, leading to searches and repeat purchases.

Maintenance spares

Critical spares are duplicated in some stores and missing in others.

Consumable expenditure

Abrasives, fixings, lubricants and PPE are consumed without clear visibility.

Urgent orders

Unknown balances lead to premium-cost emergency purchases.
