No downtime with LGI’s spare parts logistics

Spare parts logistics is a sub-area of distribution logistics and comprises all processes related to the procurement, storage and distribution of spare parts. Spare parts are defined as products, assemblies or individual parts that replace missing, damaged or worn parts. The main task of spare parts logistics is the timely and reliable supply of all required spare parts to customers and production. This is particularly important in order to minimise interruptions to production and downtime of machines, equipment and vehicles.

Spare parts logistics is characterised by three main tasks:

  • Procurement: Procurement comprises the planning, implementation and control of all activities required to procure the necessary spare parts. This includes the selection of suppliers, the negotiation of prices and delivery conditions and the monitoring of supplier performance.
  • Warehouse: The spare parts warehouse is responsible for the receipt, storage and provision of spare parts. It is important to store the spare parts in such a way that they are quickly and easily available.
  • Distribution: Distribution comprises the planning, implementation and control of all activities required to deliver the spare parts to the desired location. This includes selecting the means of transport (e.g. air and sea freight and land transport), determining the delivery times, handling, including preparing the necessary documents and monitoring the transport logistics.

Spare parts logistics is an important part of the supply chain, and not just for the automotive industry. Well-functioning spare parts logistics can help to increase the productivity and profitability of your company. Find out how LGI can help you optimise your spare parts logistics and achieve your goals.
