| Inventory management |

After long periods of
operation, costly problems can develop within spare parts inventories.
Examples of such problems include
- holding redundant stock,
- duplicated spares,
- items past their shelf life or not fit for use,
- incorrectly ordered items,
- incorrectly identified items
- unknown locations
- or a simple lack of space.
