Applying JIT to spare parts control
Article Abstract:
Manufacturing plants often lose considerable time and money during line shutdowns due to equipment failure.

To solve spare parts storage and maintenance problems, companies can opt to adopt just-in-time inventory systems (JIT). JIT systems ensure parts availability as well as reduce plant operating costs.
