Value Proposition What if you could increase your Technicians’ wrench time and
remove some of your inventory costs using a tool that you already have in your EAM system?
Scenario:Facility currently has 30 Technicians who retrieve their own partsAssumptions: Classifications would save Techs 1/2 hour a day related to finding parts. Cost Savings
Time (Man-hours) 30 Tech * 0.5 hour/Day * 260 Days/Yr 3,900 hrs.Value of lost time searching for parts 3900 hrs * $50/hr (industry std) $195,000.00
Assumptions: Value of inventory = $1M 10% reduction in inventory 100,000.00$ Inventroy carrying costs are est. at 25% of total inventory 25% of $1M or $250,000 25,000.00$
Total reduction: 320,000.00$
