Managing High Levels of Uncertainty
Overhaul & repair (O&R) or MRO is one of the most complex scheduling environments. In addition to planning and scheduling the known discrepancies, many unknown discrepancies emerge as the products are processed throughout the MRO chain. The challenge in this industry is the high level of uncertainty found in each stage of the repair chain. Imagine having to disassemble, inspect, plan, repair, and execute the reassembly of a helicopter within a limited time window. Unlike manufacturing, in MRO, the work content is not only unknown at the start of the project but can only be determined once the project is well underway. Disassembly and full inspection are required throughout the project life.
