IMPACT
Installed base planning with measurable impact
numi combines installed base data, BOMs, spare-parts networks and failure probabilities to improve service levels and reduce unnecessary inventory.
-30%
Lower spare-parts inventory
Installed-base-driven planning reduces unnecessary safety stock and non-movers.
+15%
Higher service levels
Critical spare parts are identified early and prioritized for service readiness.
+12%
Higher machine uptime
Failure probabilities and spare-parts demand are identified proactively.
100%
Network-wide transparency
Dealers, warehouses and service locations operate on one shared data model.
Actual results depend on installed base quality, ERP data, spare-parts structures and service processes.
WORKFLOW
From installed base data to optimized spare-parts planning
numi connects machine structures, spare-parts BOMs, network inventory and service processes into one data-driven planning workflow.
0101 / Workflow
Integrate installed base data
Connect machines, dealers and ERP systems
Map the installed base
numi integrates machines, serial numbers, locations and customer equipment into one data model.
Connect ERP systems
Multiple dealers, warehouses or ERP systems can be analyzed together.
Integrate machine BOMs
Spare-parts structures and component relationships become centrally available.
Create network visibility
Inventory and material flows across locations become transparent.
0202 / Workflow
Calculate failure and demand probabilities
Reduce uncertainty through machine similarity and data models
Analyze failure patterns
Historical repairs, runtimes and usage patterns are included in the analysis.
Detect machine similarities
numi generates similarity scores between machines and equipment groups.
Calculate probabilistic demand
Spare-parts demand is forecast more accurately even with sparse historical data.
Prioritize critical parts
Components with high failure or service risk are prioritized automatically.
0303 / Workflow
Optimize spare-parts inventory
Balance service levels and working capital intelligently
Service-oriented stocking
Critical spare parts are positioned where they are needed most.
Reduce non-movers
Slow-moving spare parts are optimized across the network instead of overstocked locally.
Use network inventory
numi recommends transfers between dealers, warehouses or regions.
Generate optimal replenishment
Recommendations are based on failure probability, lead time and service relevance.
0404 / Workflow
Prepare service operations
Coordinate repairs, maintenance and material availability
Prepare maintenance
Required spare parts are identified and reserved early.
Improve material lists
Technicians and experts can feed operational insights back into the system.
Protect service levels
Critical parts remain available without inflating inventory unnecessarily.
Accelerate decisions
Teams immediately see which spare parts should be prioritized.
From static spare-parts stocking to installed-base-driven planning
numi replaces static spare-parts stocking with planning that evaluates machine structure, failure probability, network inventory and service levels together.

FAQ – Installed Base & Spare Parts Planning
What is installed base software?
Installed base software connects information about machines, serial numbers, BOMs and service history to optimize service and spare-parts operations through data.
How does numi support spare-parts planning?
numi combines installed base data, machine BOMs, repair history, network inventory and probabilistic models to generate precise spare-parts and replenishment recommendations.
How does spare-parts planning work despite high uncertainty?
numi uses similarity scores between machines, historical repairs, BOM structures and failure probabilities to forecast demand more accurately even with sparse historical data.
Can numi connect multiple dealers or ERP systems?
Yes. numi can analyze multiple dealers, locations or ERP systems together and create network-wide inventory visibility.
How does numi reduce non-moving inventory?
numi identifies which spare parts are critical for service readiness and which parts are overstocked or rarely used. Network transfers and probabilistic planning help reduce unnecessary inventory.
How does numi improve machine uptime?
Critical spare parts are identified early and positioned for service readiness. This reduces the risk of machine downtime and delayed repairs.
Does numi support IoT or usage data?
Yes. Usage and IoT data can be used to calculate failure probabilities and spare-parts demand more accurately.
Which companies benefit from installed-base planning?
The solution is especially useful for manufacturing, industrial companies, service organizations, aftermarket and spare-parts businesses with high product variety, global networks and complex spare-parts planning.
