Requirement

For a client operating in the technical support sector, it was essential to reduce the time between the identification of a fault and the availability of the spare part required to restore the equipment.

The process was characterized by manual activities involving field technicians, work controllers, warehouse staff, and the purchasing department, resulting in delays, data entry errors, and difficulties in monitoring the status of requests.
The objective was to create an integrated and automated workflow that would enable a fully digitalized, fast, accurate, and fully traceable management of spare part requirements, connecting all involved departments directly.

Implementation

The solution developed with ARXivar Document & Workflow Platform enabled the entire spare parts management process to be digitized and automated, integrating directly with the company’s ERP database.

The process starts from the technical report compiled after the intervention. Through a dedicated form, the spare part code and job number are entered; ARXivar automatically retrieves all related information such as customer data, machine serial number, contract details, and other technical information, eliminating the need for manual input.

Submitting the request automatically triggers a workflow involving the Order Manager for inventory availability verification.

Based on the outcome of the check, the system manages the next steps:

  • Immediate availability of the spare part in stock and initiation of picking activities
  • Automated order management with the supplier in case of unavailability
  • Automatic notifications to all involved departments regarding the request status
  • Preventive identification of the spare part for the customer and equipment already upon goods arrival

Thanks to process automation and real-time information sharing, all involved business functions operate on consistent and up-to-date data, improving overall service efficiency.

Results

The introduction of the new process significantly improved spare parts management, increasing operational speed and service quality for customers.

Benefits achieved:

  • Elimination of data-entry errors thanks to direct ERP integration
  • Reduced processing time for spare parts requests
  • Faster equipment restoration and reduced downtime
  • Full traceability of the entire procurement process
  • Automatic updates on request status without manual follow-ups
  • Better coordination between technical support, warehouse, and purchasing departments
  • Simplified logistics activities through preventive spare part identification
  • Improved accuracy in technical intervention planning
