Installed Base Evaluation
One of the first steps in reducing spare parts costs is through an evaluation of your company's installed base of electrical and electronic equipment and spare inventory. Our comprehensive evaluation considers how equipment is used in various applications and environmental conditions and its maintenance history. We also evaluate your Maintenance, Repair & Operations (MRO) management, repair and maintenance procedures.
After our evaluation, your will receive a comprehensive analysis that identifies product locations and a list of critical, excess, and insufficient spares for this equipment. We also provide an overview of current MRO practices and make recommendations for improvement. This detailed information can help you make an informed decision about managing MRO inventory levels, procedures, and costs.
Two levels of service for Installed Base Evaluation are available:
Installed Base Evaluation — Basic
Includes an inventory of your installed electronic/mechanical equipment and itemized report.Installed Base Evaluation — Comprehensive
Includes an inventory of your installed electronic/mechanical equipment and stores of Rockwell Automation equipment. To determine recommended inventory levels, our engineers review:- Installed base of Rockwell Automation products
- Spares inventory
- Applications
- Environmental conditions (grounding, wiring, possible corrosive conditions, temperature, etc.)
We consult with your electricians and maintenance staff to determine the nature of any problems experienced. Using our proprietary Installed Base Evaluation software, the final analysis provides:

- Identification of critical spares, including excess and insufficient spares
