ASSET TRACKING IN ASSET INTENSIVE ENTERPRISES

摘要

A method, system, and computer program product for asset service and maintenance lifecycle management and supply chain planning. Some embodiments commence upon receiving a database record corresponding to an individually identified asset to be individually tracked through a corresponding asset lifecycle. A supply chain ordering module generates a candidate order database entry for a component or supply as may be demanded by an asset specific scheduled maintenance plan. Having the asset specific scheduled maintenance plan, a module accesses maintenance depot database records to retrieve the asset specific scheduled maintenance plan for the individually identified asset, and the maintenance depot records are assessed to determine if the component or supply is present at the repair depot, and if so, the candidate order can be adjusted to account for the presence of the component or supply at the repair depot. The adjusted amount is forwarded to a supply chain management business application.

主权项

1. A method comprising:
using a computing system having at least one processor to perform a process, the process comprising: receiving a database record corresponding to an individually identified asset to be individually tracked through a corresponding asset lifecycle; generating a candidate order database entry for a component or supply constituent to the individually identified asset, wherein the component or supply constituent to the individually identified asset is identified in an asset specific scheduled maintenance plan; accessing a database pertaining to at least one of a plurality of maintenance depots to retrieve database records, at least some of the database records referring to the asset specific scheduled maintenance plan for the individually identified asset; and adjusting the candidate order based at least in part on the retrieved database records to form a maintenance adjusted order.
