OPERATIONAL CONTROLLING IN THE MANAGEMENT OF SPARE PARTS AVAILABILITY

Abstract

In order to meet the aimed financial result and market competitiveness, the management of a manufacturing enterprise's operating system and supply chain requires a system connection and the use of many tools, among others, financial and operational analysis, value management of processes and development of business models of cooperation with partners in the supply chain. Controlling assists result-oriented management and creates a subfunctional management system which supports management personnel in making decisions and creating mechanisms of efficient and effective management. The aim of the article is to determine the scope of use of the operating controlling system and its impact on the management of the availability of spare parts and the effectiveness of the production process. The article presents a system of indicators for assessing the efficiency of spare parts management in their supply chain as well as the results of empirical verification of the controlling system.

The results of the research carried out by the Authors indicate that the process of maintenance and the availability of spare parts, especially in highly machinized, robotized and automatized production processes, is one of the most important factors in their continuity, failure recovery rate, and repair performance rate.

Keywords: operational controlling system, spare parts availability, production process efficiency
