MRO Storeroom Best Practices: Design, Organization, & Reports
ATS’s MRO Storeroom Best Practices highlights how effective storeroom design, organization, and reporting drive reliability, cost control, and uptime. Efficient layouts with clear signage, vertical storage, and environmental controls improve safety and access. Organizational methods like labeling, zoning, and 5S principles reduce waste and duplication. Inventory best practices include classifying critical parts, using demand forecasting, vendor-managed inventory, and eliminating obsolete stock. Reporting—covering usage, stock levels, accuracy, and turnover—enables smarter decisions. Integrating CMMS/ERP systems, barcodes, RFID, and analytics ensures real-time visibility and accuracy, transforming storerooms into strategic operational assets.
