Spare Parts Strategy for Critical Units

Spare-part strategy is a reliability decision disguised as a procurement decision.

Classify by consequence

Stock against the cost of downtime, not against the cost of the part. A low-value component on a critical path deserves shelf space; a high-value component with a short lead time may not.

Plan at supply, not at failure

We define the spares package during the technical study, before the unit is even ordered.
