Hi Friend,
Do you utilize vending machines for control of your spare parts or PPE?
I find it curious that, despite the widespread application of vending machines in society, they are yet to truly make their mark in MRO and spare parts applications.
Yes, industrial vending has been around for quite a few years, and some suppliers of this equipment reportedly have tens of thousands of machines at client premises. However, despite this, I believe that industrial vending is yet to reach its full potential. Eventually, industrial vending machines will be as ubiquitous as computers, software, and printers.
This is the 200th edition of our newsletter and to mark that event we are launching the first of a series of ‘special reports’. Today's report is titled:
A Practical Guide to the Selection and Application of Industrial Vending Machines.
The purpose of this report is to provide guidance to those who may be considering the application of industrial vending machines in their work place. As with most things, this decision is not quite as simple and straight forward as many suppliers will have you think.
The report is available in a new section at SparePartsKnowHow.com, ‘Special Reports & Books’. Currently we include my books and this special report but over time we will expand on this – we will let you know as we do.
Follow this link for more information on our special report:
For those that are considering undertaking our Spare Parts Management Certificate, we are now providing tracking sheets that will help you keep a record of your progress through the modules and quizzes.
Using these tracking sheets you can check off the content as you review it. This gives you complete visibility of your progress. Plus, your HR department can keep it as a record of the training that you have completed.
The tracking sheets are available using a link at the top of the page for each module.
