Strategic MRO: A Roadmap for Transforming Assets into Competitive Advantage combines the concepts of enterprise asset management and the associated maintenance, repair and operating/overhaul (MRO) materials supply chain. This book introduces the breakthrough Demand Supply Compression (DSC) methology, which provides a practical path forward to guide an organization's thinking and doing as the seek performance improvement. Focused on achieving a future perfect and guided by meaningful principles, organizations will learn to apply compression stratigies to drive out waste, time and non-value adding activities from the strategic MRO practices. Like lean, DSC is a breakthrough methology that provides a practical path forward in performance improvement by changing a mind frame and the way in which work is performed. Stratigic MRO includes Case Studies from a chemical company, a water utility, and automotive manufacturer, a mobile telecommunications company, a military base operation, and a truck load freight carrier. This is much more than a maintenance management supply chain book because it encompasses both asset management and supply chain practices. If you are looking to transform your assets into a stratigic advantage, you have found the right book.
