Uncover Key Insights from This Unmissable Article!
Hi Friend,

I know that you are too busy to read everything.

But I think that you should read this.

ICYMI here is the article I sent out a couple of weeks ago.

Why Your Spare Parts Metrics Must Tell a Story
 
Everyone reading this will have no doubt heard the expression, “what gets measured, gets managed” – or something similar. 

The original quote is usually attributed to Peter Drucker’s 1954 book ‘The Practice of Management’. 

Perhaps more interesting is the somewhat lesser-known full quote:

What gets measured gets managed, even when it is pointless to measure and manage it, 
even if it harms the purpose of the organization to do so.

Drucker wasn’t simply encouraging people to measure their actions and outcomes; he was warning us about the dangers of not being fully aware of the organizational impact of what we were measuring.

The article explores the idea that we may be measuring things that really DON'T MATTER and why the key to managing spare parts inventory is to use a suite of metrics that will tell the story of what happened, not just the point-in-time result.

Keep on improving!
