Rotables are Spare Parts or whole pieces of equipment that can repeatedly and economically be refurbished to a serviceable condition over a period approximating the life of the equipment to which they are related.  Managing this process is one of the most complicated processes in Maintenance & is often not done well.  This is the story of the Opal journey.

• Refurbishment life cycle – From issuing the Materials to retrieving from area to sending for overhaul
• Tracking of repairs – Using SAP Notifications, Purchase Orders, & Internal Orders to track repairs (no spreadsheets)
