nudu connects maintenance requirements with available stock and purchase orders to resolve supply exceptions.
A part recorded in stock may already be reserved. A supplier’s revised date can leave a maintenance order without the required material.
These applications are configured for each operation. Availability depends on accessible data and approved integrations.
Stock available for maintenance. nudu compares work order requirements with unreserved stock and pending purchase orders to identify shortages before the required date.
Case record. Missing item linked to the work order, with its required date and responsible team.
Agreed dates and quantities. nudu requests missing confirmations and flags differences against the purchase order for procurement review.
Case record. Supplier response attached to the order and any deviation assigned for resolution.
Thresholds by material and site. nudu identifies stock below the approved minimum and prepares a requisition using existing procurement rules.
Case record. A proposed requisition with supporting stock data, subject to purchasing approval.
Evidence for invoice review. nudu compares the invoice with the purchase order and recorded receipt, then requests clarification when quantities or prices differ.
Case record. A documented discrepancy for accounts payable, with no automatic payment release.
Illustrative example
A maintenance order requires two bearings. One unreserved unit is recorded in stock.
nudu finds a pending purchase order and requests confirmation of the available quantity and date.
The proposed date falls after the maintenance window. Procurement receives the discrepancy; engineering approves any substitute.
The approved response is linked to the original requirement. The case remains open until the supply exception is resolved.
Implementation
The pilot compares these measures with the operation’s baseline. Targets are agreed after the initial assessment.
Industry references
The initial assessment defines the process and the data available for a pilot.
