The logic behind learning Spare parts and Inventory system is to understand the basics of
inventory management with the help of technology. According to me, I feel that I need to
study the theory along with the practical applications since CMMS (Computerized
Maintenance Management System) is an essential part of spare parts inventory management
and it cannot be mastered unless and until I have some practical knowledge of the same. Even
after the course is over, I feel I need an apprenticeship for understanding the concept better
and only then I shall venture into the job market.
The most interesting thing about spare parts inventory is that each and every company is
different and the method is at different levels of advancement and refinement. There is no
straitjacket rule for spare parts management training. This study shall teach me the basics, but
all through my career, I shall find different challenges to face even if I am in the same
company. This profession demands completely different requirement between one company
to another and at the same time what I need today, might not be relevant in 2 years time, so
again its going to be a new confrontation for me. To sum it up, this study and career are
expected to provide me with new challenges and fascinating path all through my career
(Bounou, Barkany, & Biyaali, 2017).
In order to master this profession, I need to find out one of the best training courses and also a
good institute providing me a detailed training on CMMS. I understand, for this purpose, the
theoretical and classroom training will not be sufficient. I also need to find an enterprise who
is willing to take on apprentices for their spare parts inventory team, where I can join as a
trainee. At this point in time, my vision should be to learn the skills of the trade and not focus
on the remuneration.
Through this course, I look forward to learn the following:
 Managing the technique of spare parts inventory and ensuring how to keep the spare
parts at the right place at the right time along with not incurring extra cost for
inventory
 Learn how to use the CMMS for integrating the data and provide an automated
system for optimized inventory execution
 The course shall help me in learning to build strategies and approaches for managing
each category of spare parts and develop an endorsed list of spare parts stock (Basten
& Houtum, 2014)
