Spare parts optimization process and results: OPUS10 cases in the Norwegian Defence
The paper has two main aims: to focus on how the spare parts optimization process was conducted in the Norwegian Defence procurement projects that had used the system approach based on OPUS10, and whether coordination issues affected the process and results; and to analyse empirical data in order to evaluate whether the theoretical claim of the system approach used through OPUS10, being better than other methods in terms of availability and spare parts investment cost holds up in reality.
