Manage to save time and money

A properly managed storeroom is the difference between having parts when you need them and spending too much time and money getting them when the need becomes critical. This book shows you how to plan, equip, stock, catalog, and manage a storeroom that will benefit both your workers and the company. Discover cost-effective ways to maintain essential stock, how to conduct audits, and even ways to negotiate better prices.

* Choose the most practical site, storage system, lighting, and security
* Plan what parts you need, when they should arrive, and how best to catalog them
* Set standards and balance quality and price
* Plan an efficient physical layout and organize your storeroom to balance space limitations against shelving cost
* Establish an inventory system that works
* Learn what you need to know about purchasing laws, contracts, warranties, and ethical practices

Rarely addressed, efficient Spare Parts management is essential to a well-run facility. Featuring training methods, examples, and easy-to-follow charts and graphs, this practical handbook provides detailed guidance on running a cost-effective storeroom and establishing an organized materials tracking system in any plant.
