What is Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO)? |
Maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) systems support MRO planning and execution to service equipment (especially for aircraft or fleet vehicles, but also for many other industries), and help extend the life of these items. MRO software assists manufacturers and other enterprises in leveraging full control over all aspects of their maintenance activities, including configuration management, engineering, and maintenance and repair planning and execution. MRO systems also help manufacturers manage in-service product configuration changes, and enhance inventory for maximized use of resources and personnel. |
Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) Benefits and Drivers |
MRO systems help manufacturers and other enterprises manage the maintenance and repair of all assets and equipment by - scheduling preventative maintenance (PM) with automated, user-defined triggers
- extending the “uptime” (life cycle) of key assets with improved maintenance planning and execution
- maximizing use of repaired equipment with rotable asset tracking (rotable assets are those that are repaired and placed on the shop floor to replace others that need repair; these assets are then in turn repaired to replace others that need repair, etc.)
- providing accurate and accessible inventory views of all parts, tools, and equipment for the duration of their life cycles
- helping prevent contract breaches and substandard maintenance
- helping meet customer demands for reliability and availability
- enabling faster, more accurate maintenance and repairs with digital distribution of work orders, instructions, and other essential documentation to point-of-service technicians

MRO Risks |
Manufacturers that do not have an MRO system (standalone or in conjunction with another software solution) run the risk of company-wide inefficiencies: - Locating parts is inefficient—or impossible—without an MRO system to share, consolidate and standardize information in catalogs and other formats.
- Without MRO, labor resources (including materials and personnel) may not be adequately forecasted, resulting in delays to repairs and maintenance, as well as limits on equipment availability.
- Inability to accurately estimate the number of parts needed for a job multiplies costs and may result in capital tied up in superfluous parts.
- Inability to predict lead times for inventory can result in longer fill rates and an increase in inventory costs.

Why Use the MRO Evaluation Center? |
- Compare MRO solutions and their ability to permit smooth integration with other key software solutions, such as enterprise resource planning (ERP), or enterprise asset management (EAM).
- Analyze which MRO systems will provide your manufacturing enterprise with the functionality needed to flexibly plan, schedule, and close work orders and contracts.
- Evaluate which solutions provide the most extensive capabilities for item routing management. These capabilities might include planning and documentation, including bills of materials (BOMs).
- Evaluate which MRO solutions can scale to enable you to address your highest business priorities first, while adapting to changing business conditions (such as company growth and new technologies).
