Spare Parts Logistics

What is the meaning of Spare Parts Logistics?

Spare Parts Logistics is a planned logistics process in the event where the component of a transport vehicle or delivery machine fails. The logic behind the spare part logistics is to ensure a smooth and timely delivery of spare parts to the broken machine. Where component is not quickly delivered after breakdown, the transport company incurs more costs.

In the logistics industry, spare parts can present the biggest challenge, since the availability of parts, short delivery times and process reliability must be met. Therefore, the spare parts logistics is an ideal solution for optimally balancing pace and costs.

This is a speedy delivery of components to damaged vehicle when transporting.
