The optimization model of spare parts and support equipment at peacetime

Spare parts and support equipment are two important interactional support resources. In the past, most approaches researched them separately without taking the relationship of them into account when forecasting the demand, which reduces the accuracy of forecast consequently. However, the amount of support equipment determines the maintenance support capability of logistics to a certain extent, which effects spare parts inventory directly. Through balancing and optimizing spare parts and support equipment at peacetime, we can effectively improve the accuracy of the forecast of their requirement at peacetime in order to achieve the aims of improving the utilization of expense and eliminating waste eventually.
