Customer Challenges
Over time spare pools and supply chains of critical control elements, including PRVs, need to be realigned with the installations in the plant/field. AWC’s Life Cycle Optimization work processes and software tools compare Installed Base and Spares Pool data with new valve and critical spare parts inventories to identify and fill gaps to avoid excessive “rush” repair and replacement costs and delays
