A sample of work done &/or Tools to fix Spares operations

Much of the original work preceded modern tools, so the graphics are a little sparse

Helped set up several spares operations

Developed the definitive spares and service trade off

Raised service level on reduced stock for the slickest logistics operator there is

Customised everything from country and region stocks to van spares

In passing, Mail Order and Spares have a good deal more in common than I first realised. Huge range, glacial rates of sale, extensive, complicated returns (spares needing rework; clothing out-of-season) and demanding, impatient customers.

Once again we see there are marked similarities between logistics chains in dissimilar sectors.
