Maintenance, Repair And Operations (Mro)

MRO is an acronym for Maintenance, Repair and Operations. MRO represents a class of expendable supplies used to maintain, repair and operate equipment and facilities. The term is commonly used in manufacturing and heavy industry, and can include everything from screws and washers to heavy machinery components.

MRO expenditures are typically a significant percentage of a company’s overall budget, often second only to direct labor costs. Well-managed MRO inventories can have a major impact on a company’s profitability and competitiveness.
