Parts Management Agreement

Parts Management Agreement (PMA)

WHAT IS A PMA?


A Parts Management Agreement (PMA) provides ready access to the Rockwell Automation® spare parts you need, while reducing operating costs to maintain and manage this inventory. Rockwell owns and manages your spare parts inventory and you have a fixed monthly or quarterly fee.


Don’t have a scarcity of critical spares, or waste money by sinking capital into parts that become obsolete and never used. There’s a better way!

#
50% of service work that cannot be successfully completed the first time is due to a lack of part availability.
Is your facility prepared for critical spare downtime?
HOW DOES A PMA WORK?
#
Rockwell-owned spare parts are conveniently stored at your facility for ready access (flat monthly/quarterly fee for access).
#
As parts on the line fail, simply take the spare off the shelf and put into production.
#
Update your flexible PMA inventory list as your installed base changes. Add/delete parts from the bill of materials so you always have what you need.
HOW CAN A PMA CAN IMPROVE YOUR BOTTOM LINE?
#
REDUCE OPERATING COSTS
  • Minimize total cost of inventory ownership by only purchasing what you need, as you need it
  • Simplify budgeting for spare part inventory with monthly/quarterly costs, rather than large capital investments
  • Additional savings when you send failed units back for remanufacturing
#
OPTIMIZE INVENTORY
  • Critical spares on site
  • House only active parts in your inventory and update the bill of materials as needed to match your production needs
  • Avoid inventory obsolescence by removing unneeded parts from your agreement
  • 1-year in-service warranty on agreement stock and options for extended warranty
#
INCREASE THROUGHPUT
  • Avoid downtime by having the parts you need and reliable remanufacturing to extend part life
  • Minimize security risks and extend functionality with access to the latest software updates when remanufacturing parts
  • Support for legacy and non-Allen Bradley® products, both for PMA inventory and for remanufacturing of failed parts
