Abstract

Managing aircraft spare parts has been troublesome since there is demand uncertainty. Maintenance cost has been a concern nowadays especially spare parts cost. The objective of this research is to study costs generated by spare parts procurement using new inventory model compared with existing inventory model. To present this inventory analysis, a case study based on a maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) company in Indonesia is discussed. In this research, two methods are used, i.e. Syntetos-Boylan Approximation (SBA) and Single Exponential Smoothing (SES) to predict the planned maintenance forecasting. Furthermore, after forecasting has been done, inventory analysis is needed to determine inventory model to be implemented. According to inventory model, fixed order quantity is used to account for costs generated in procurement activity. Since the forecasting methods are new in PT XYZ, this gave different result compared to existing method. Suitable forecasting method is used on each SKU as the demand characteristics are different. The result of this research shows that the new inventory model using SBA and SES method are more accurate, and gave cost reduction 2.4% of total annual procurement cost compared to existing inventory model. It can be said that the method can be applied to improve inventory cost reduction to face challenges in aviation industry. The weakness of this research is only conducted in several spare part SKUs with specific demand characteristics. To prove that the method can be generally accepted, the number of SKU samples needs to be increased.
