Maintenance Strategies and Spare Parts Inventory Management for Use of Reconditioned Items ()
ABSTRACT
The maintenance management of construction equipment
occupies a prominent place in the overall strategy for managing the equipment
fleet. It is also linked to the management of the stock of spare parts and
particularly reconditioned spare parts. Because of the relatively low purchase
cost of these, most companies are tempted by this option. The purpose of this article is
precisely to study the impact of this category of parts in the stock and also
in the optimization of maintenance costs, knowing that to do this; their use
must obey certain constraints. It is therefore important to be able to
characterize these reconditioned parts by estimating their optimal age, and studying their advantages and also their limits. The
determination of the optimal age of reconditioned parts will be such that the
total cost of replacement with used parts is at most equal to the total cost of
replacement with new parts at the end of the operating period.
