The Stockout Spiral
- 1Technicians arrive at jobs only to discover the part isn't in the warehouse nearest to the building
- 2Reorder points exist in someone's head — stock runs out before anyone notices
- 3Critical parts and commodity parts are treated the same, so critical stocking decisions are uninformed
- 4Supplier comparisons happen in emails — nobody knows who offers shorter lead times or better pricing
- 5Purchase requests bypass approval, creating budget surprises at month-end
Arkan Spare Parts & Inventory Capabilities
Multi-Warehouse Tracking
Track stock across multiple warehouse locations, each linked to specific buildings and floors. Monitor quantity on hand, reserved, and available in real-time.
Reorder Intelligence
Reorder points, reorder quantities, and maximum quantities per part per warehouse. The system generates alerts automatically when stock drops below thresholds.
Transaction Ledger
Every movement recorded: receipts, issues, returns, adjustments, transfers, write-offs — with reference type (work order, PO, manual), unit cost, and performer.
Purchase Request Workflow
Itemized line items, vendor selection, and financial summaries. Progress: draft → submitted → approved → ordered → received. Track approver and rejection reasons.
Simple 4-Step Process
Register spare parts with part numbers, manufacturer, model, unit of measure, unit cost, and critical-part flags — organized in hierarchical categories
Link multiple suppliers per part with supplier-specific part numbers, unit costs, lead times, and preferred-supplier flags
Track stock across warehouses with reorder points; reservations happen against work orders
Low-stock alerts flow automatically; purchase requests route through approval before ordering
