Easily manage your spare parts with Mobility Work CMMS

No maintenance professional, no matter how experienced, is immune to an unexpected failure, despite very elaborate maintenance strategies. Factory managers know how annoying it is to have to replace an essential spare part at a critical time. Since anything can happen, Mobility Work CMMS was designed to support you.

Replacing missing spare parts (research, order, payment, receipt) is a long and complex process that can slow down the entire production cycle. Mobility Work offers an easy and fast solution, and offers all members of the community the possibility of accessing millions of spare parts available online on official catalogs, on Amazon, eBay, or made available by suppliers of 3D printed parts. The Mobility Work inventory management software even intends to soon offer its customers an online purchase option. But sometimes some spare parts are closer than you think: maybe even in your factory, mounted on another piece of equipment without you knowing it. Mobility Work is there to inform you directly.

Ordering spare parts is a time-consuming process

In case of urgent need, the purchasing process detailed below is implemented: the technician must provide the characteristics of the missing part to the purchasing department. The latter must carefully review the request before accepting it and transmitting it to the supplier, who also needs time before confirming the availability of the parts and delivering them.

This is obviously a long and tedious process, likely to drastically slow down or even interrupt production, and to affect the productivity and turnover of the factory. The spare parts ordering cycle can vary from factory to factory, and from industry sector to industry. However, it can be said that the deadlines are generally proportional to the size of the factory and the number of people and departments involved.
