Do you have surplus aircraft part inventory?
This unnecessary buildup occurs when you order inventory in preparation for near term consumption.
When that consumption never occurs. Voila! Surplus inventory builds up.
Here’s the impact that this causes to your operation.
It’s not the price you pay, how business savvy you are, or how excellent your negotiation skills are. This is the MOST IMPORTANT skill you need when purchasing aircraft parts.
Your surplus aircraft material was sitting. Rotting. Wasting away on your shelves.
Slowly eating away at your operational results. Chomp. Chomp. Chomp.
Cash was being sucked down the surplus drain. And the only thing you could do was…
Price. How important is it to you? How often do you try and get the lowest price? I’m sure you’re thinking to yourself, “It’s incredibly important.” and “Every chance I get.” And that’s fair. It’s also common to ask how much something costs. Or to reduce the cost of something. We often use price and cost interchangeably. That’s a mistake.
Do you purchase expendable and consumable material from international partners?
If you're like most airlines, MROs, lessors and militaries we work with, your answer is…YES! Duh!
By sourcing material from overseas partners, you’re trying to control total material costs and increase reliability.
Expendables and consumables. The inglorious material that gives you a headache.
You know the feeling. You get a 100 part requirement. Or 200. Or 1,000. And your head wants to explode.
Are you purchasing aircraft material daily?
Like most airlines and MROs, it is important to complete projects, keep aircraft in the air and make money.
But what if, everything you thought about purchasing was costing you more money? The money you didn’t know was seeping through the cracks as hidden operational expenses. Money not on the POs you send, but hidden in everything that surrounds the PO.
