Tiivistelmä
Globalization has made it possible to buy from all over the world in an easy, safe and fast way. When buying abroad, it is always advantageous to buy from countries having comparative advantage in the production of these goods. The research objective is how to reduce the cost of machine maintenance in order to avoid frequent production shutdown and improve production efficiency by evaluating cost of maintenance. (La-bor, spare parts purchase etc.)
The suppliers of great interest are ASCO Inc, Rembe Inc, RMT Valvomeccanica Inc and Metso Corporation. These suppliers either manufacture these spare parts and/or retail these products. The spare parts of great concern are petrochemical valves, and the research was done by performing an interview with both the suppliers and the commissioning company.
The result shows that purchasing durable spare parts from Europe have a positive im-pact on the cost of machine maintenance. Two suppliers were analyzed which were ASCO Inc. based in Sweden and REMBE Inc. based in Germany. The supplier selected is REMBE Inc., but further research is needed in order to determine the supplier with the best quality spare parts.
