LinkedIn Nation! Day 3 of my, 1-plant-per-day Bill of Materials blitz with a client in the upper Midwest. Tremendous day today working inside of a huge storage bin. Think grain elevator, but bigger. One of the key points of this storage bin is that this organization has 12 of them. They are huge, almost hard to describe how big they are. Each of the 12 were manufactured in different years, and therefore are different in subtle, and major ways. The director of reliability for this organization began a campaign 3 years ago to standardize all the major parts. He is almost done with that campaign and the results are remarkable. Instead of stocking 12 of a particular component, they stock maybe 2 or 3, because of standardization. The BOM workshop went very smoothly today, mainly because the planner at this location is truly exceptional! If you feel that you are ready to get your Bill of Materials together, and move towards the world-class value of 98% of your assets having complete BOMs, drop us an email, and we'll get this on the 2025 calendar!

John, I am virtually on this journey with you though your posts! It’s like I am there observing what you are seeing! The BOM is truly the corner stone for having the right part at the right time in the right quantity & quality supporting the organizations maintenance & reliability efforts!
