Organizations today face increasing procurement costs, and even penalties due to non-compliance of material, that result from ‘MRO Taxonomy’ issues. Let’s take for example, a parallel between the taxonomy for the food industry vs generic taxonomy. Typically, in the food manufacturing industry food grade material or lubricant is vital; because the generic MRO part may contaminate the food during handling or manufacturing.

Here is an example of Taxonomy for Normal vs Food Grade materials.

Based on the different taxonomies, here is an example of how the same item’s description varies in order to meet business needs:

It is imperative for all food processing businesses to manage their taxonomy so as to indicate the food grade specific Noun Modifier(s) with detailed attributes. This also helps in segregating food grade and non-food grade . A generic taxonomy cannot be used for all food grade MRO parts, since the required/mandatory attributes may be different for a non-food grade spare part. Since the short description of a spare part is generated based on the noun modifiers and top mandatory attributes, the sequencing of such attributes is also critical.

Additionally, food grade-specific noun modifiers in the taxonomy make it easier to identify & standardize such MRO parts to leverage its impact on an overall Inventory Management System, Spend Analytics, optimized sourcing capabilities, and operational efficiencies.

At �ۿ۴�ý, we design industry-specific taxonomy and develop cataloging for clients across the globe, cutting across different industries such as pharma, life sciences, food and beverage, mining, oil and gas, power and multiple other process industries.

The Client specializes in supplying complete manufacturing solutions in mechanics, electronics, cables and final assembly. This includes Sheet & Heavy Mechanics, Machining, PCB Assembly, Cable Harnesses, System Integration & Box Build and Turbine Technologies.

The Client had a huge database of part numbers from suppliers, gathered over time. However, the database had not been maintained efficiently and the Client faced numerous issues arising from the presence of wrong or duplicate part numbers, non-standardized manufacturer names and the lack of compliance related information. The Client required support in developing a customized method to generate the description coding based on their standard (EU Material Coding) commodity classification system. �ۿ۴�ý offered the Client a solution that used sample input data to achieve the desired outcome. The Client appreciated the dedication and motivation displayed by the team in achieving the results, and awarded the Data Enrichment project involving Schema Development, Item Master Database Validation & Enrichment, Database Maintenance to �ۿ۴�ý.

�ۿ۴�ý’s head of said, “Our knowledge and experience in the domain helped us earn the Client’s trust and establish ourselves as the Component Engineering partner that the Client needed. It was �ۿ۴�ý’s focused approach and keen understanding of the Client’s requirements that enabled us to win the project.”

The Client specializes in providing full service engineering that helps Clients from the energy industry through their concept to commissioning stages. They offer facilities for hydrocarbon processing, hydrogen reforming for ammonia and methanol production, and renewable energy facilities such as bio-fuels and waste-to-energy direct fixed furnaces and related combustion technologies, including burner management systems, waste heat recovery systems, NOx reduction systems.

The Client has a core team of process engineers who build accurate process flow diagrams that lay the foundation for a sustainable structure. This team of highly skilled process engineers was loaded with new as well as old projects, and simultaneously one of their customers came up with a requirement to revise Process documentation for multiple locations. For this sudden influx of work, the team required extended support from equally capable engineers who are proficient with AutoCAD. �ۿ۴�ý extended drafting support on sample P&IDs shared by the Client. The turnaround efficiency and quality of output, helped them win the project. �ۿ۴�ý’s solution delivered within a short time frame, with minimal back and forth and clarity of understanding helped the team gain the Client’s trust. After successful initiation and roll out, the Client awarded �ۿ۴�ý the new project.

On this occasion, �ۿ۴�ý’s Business Head of Engineering Services said, “Having a team of dedicated professionals with vast experience in energy industry helped us show value to the Client even for the sample project. The volume of Process documents that need to be reworked by our team require in depth understanding of the process flows and technology. Based on our wealth of experience, we were able to build an approach that can meet the Client’s needs using our in-house tools and software technology along with their own hand drawn documents and marked up P&ID. We will also be efficiently documenting the process of drafting and designing according to the Client’s requirement, for audit trails and expansion plans.”

Here’s an example that shows 3 different inventory data managers entering details for a PUMP CASING in 3 different naming convention:

��At a later date when the data is required for a centralized purchase request, these naming patterns would have a detrimental impact as they would cause the following issues:

• Increase in Inventory Costs
• Inefficient management of Capital
• Cause unexpected downtime in case of stringent production deadline

Even in case of regular purchases for every site, the purchase team would incur costs and employ resources that can be better utilized.

Keeping the above listed challenges in consideration there is a need for large global organizations to re-think standardizing of MRO parts naming and leveraging its impact on an overall . This commonality that deters the efficient operations of a manufacturing/processing facility, thus needs standardized noun modifiers to name the particular spare. These noun modifiers would be pivotal in avoiding confusion and inconsistencies in the legacy system thereby saving a huge capital on the inventory. A comprehensive taxonomy of standard set of Noun Modifier(s) also helps to build a dictionary that can be utilized across locations and also by various functional units.�� This would further yield the following benefits

1. Better classification and categorization of parts
2. Eradicating duplication
3. Display exact stock available data in the inventory
4. Plethora of economic benefits
