The challenge
Keeping parts for a process on hand can tie up capital, so you have to know which items are most beneficial to have. Finding out requires insights into your process and an idea of how essential each part is to production. Then you also need to be able to monitor your inventory and process as instruments are repaired and replaced. This combination of factors can make choosing what to stock tricky.
