AI already provides significant opportunities to improve materiel readiness without increasing inventory. Integration with the supply chain delivers the best results.

With powerful enabling technology, Performance-Based Logistics (PBL) programs have the unique potential to deliver high equipment availability at the lowest cost.

Faced with a major supply chain disruption due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Thermo Fisher Scientific joined hands with PTC Servigistics and SimAcumen to understand the impact of the disruption and mitigate it with the creative use of Monte Carlo simulations.

Optimizing and managing inventory of service parts, then, is critical to winning in the aftermarket.
