ketteQ Service Parts Planning

Deliver the Right Part at the Right Time, Reasoned in Real Time

Service Parts Planning

Field service teams live and die by one number: whether the right part is in the right place when a technician needs it. Sporadic demand, scattered stocking locations, from distribution centers to trucks and remote sites, and the cost of getting it wrong make service parts one of the hardest categories to plan. A single stockout can strand a technician, delay a repair, trigger multiple truck runs and cost a customer relationship.

This is where Quintus™ earns its name. Rather than running a scripted forecast that assumes steady, predictable demand, Quintus™ reasons through install-base data, failure rates, and sporadic demand patterns the moment a question is asked, powered by PolymatiQ™, ketteQ's patent-pending agentic solver. Ask why fill rates dropped at a specific field location and get an answer built on live data, not last month's report, fully governed with a complete audit trail behind every recommendation.

Whether parts sit in a distribution center, a technician's truck, or a dealer's shelf, Quintus™ keeps stocking levels, repair cycles, and order plans aligned to what is actually happening in the field. It deploys above your existing systems in four to eight weeks, with no rip and replace, so service levels improve without disrupting the operation already in motion.

Take your supply chain efforts to the next level!

Our Features

Statistical Forecasting for Sporadic Demand

Best-fit statistical methods apply automatically across every hierarchy level and demand stream, projecting no-fault-founds, returns, and repairs alongside lead times and wash rates.

Install-Base and Failure-Rate Forecasting

Generate leading-indicator forecasts from install-base, contract terms, MTBF, MTBR, or MTBUR, even where demand history is thin, with rates refining automatically as real data accumulates.

Causal Forecasting

External variables such as government policy, economic conditions, and industry indicators factor directly into the forecast, accounting for causal lags most systems miss.

Authorized Stocking List (ASL) Generation

ASLs generate automatically by part and location, based on demand patterns or configurable criteria like hit frequency and time between occurrences.

Trigger-Based Inventory Levels

ROP, RROP, EOQ, REOQ, SMAX, and RMAX calculate automatically from part attributes, lead times, cost, and vendor pricing, not a static spreadsheet formula.

New Product Launch and End-of-Life Planning

Plan new part introductions and phase-outs with confidence, drawing on historical data, failure rates, and comparable parts before a single unit ships.

Safety Stock Optimization

Optimal safety stock levels buffer against variability across complex part chains, protecting availability without padding inventory unnecessarily.

Multi-Echelon and Multi-Item Optimization (MEIO)

Stock levels optimize simultaneously across every location, segment, and category, balancing availability against budget at each echelon.

Trigger-Point and Time-Phased Order Planning

Every supply order, procurement, repair, replenishment, and rebalancing gets planned automatically from the distribution center to the field stocking location.

Rotable Pool and Exchange Planning

Rotable pools size themselves automatically, weighing repair, return, and no-fault-found lead times against scrap rates and inventory already in transit.

Smart Supply Order Decisions

Quintus™ weighs geography, segment, price, need date, and criticality to recommend whether to buy new, repair, rebalance, or de-manufacture.

Complex Part Chaining

Full part replacement chains, demand, sourcing, and the mix of good and bad inventory, stay visible and manageable in one place.

Unscripted Scenario Modeling

Evaluate competing inventory strategies against a scenario nobody configured in advance, and choose the approach that fits your actual goals.

Real-Time Monitoring and Alerts

Inventory levels and rotable bank health are tracked continuously, with configurable alerts surfacing problems before they disrupt a repair.

Our Benefits

Improved Part Availability and Fill Rates

Parts are where they need to be when a technician needs them, cutting delays and the costs that come with them.

Increased Customer Satisfaction and Sales

Higher service levels and automatic adjustment to disruption translate directly into stronger sales and customer retention.

Lower Expediting Costs

Fewer urgent repair, replenishment, and procurement orders, because every source of supply is already factored into the plan.

Reduced Obsolescence

Smarter replenishment and optimized stock levels keep excess and obsolete inventory from accumulating in the first place.

Increased Productivity

Automating the routine work across service parts planning frees your team for the decisions that actually need their judgment.

Lower Inventory Costs

Leaner, better-targeted inventory holds service levels steady while cutting the costs of carrying too much.

Why ketteQ for Service Parts Planning?

Service parts planning fails in the gap between demand that is genuinely unpredictable and systems that assume it isn't. Quintus™ closes that gap by reasoning through install-base data, failure rates, and sporadic demand the moment a question is asked, not on a schedule someone configured months ago. It learns continuously from every repair, return, and no-fault-found, so the picture of what your network actually needs sharpens with each cycle instead of going stale between updates.

That reasoning is available to whoever needs it, a planner checking a stocking list, a field manager tracking a technician's truck stock, without waiting on a report. Every recommendation is auditable and explainable, fully governed from the first deployment. Quintus™ deploys above your existing systems in four to eight weeks, with no rip and replace, so the improvement in fill rates and expediting costs starts showing up in weeks, not after a multi-year rollout.
