AI FOR SPARE PARTS & AFTERMARKET
Less inventory.
More uptime.
Your spare parts were designed for mass production. Your demand isn't.
Arcessio AI identifies which parts can be manufactured on demand, without unnecessary tooling, minimum order quantities, or long lead times.
01 / THE PROBLEM
Stock too much.
Or wait too long.
Companies face an expensive choice: carry excess spare parts inventory or risk costly equipment downtime when parts aren't available.
Tooling costs add up.
Low volumes shouldn’t mean high setup costs.
Store it. Then scrap it.
Slow-moving inventory ties up capital.
One part. Weeks idle.
Long lead times keep equipment down.
THE ARCESSIO DIFFERENCE
Optimal inventory.
Faster repairs.
Arcessio AI identifies which spare parts can be manufactured on demand using more economical processes and qualified suppliers closer to where they're needed.
- 01
Analyze the part.
Arcessio AI reviews the part and identifies manufacturing alternatives.
- 02
Find the right technology.
Match the part to a suitable process for low-volume, on-demand production.
- 03
Make it locally.
Connect with a qualified local supplier to produce the part closer to customer need.
CASE STUDY / 02 · END-USE PARTS
Half the cost. Weeks turned into days.
Fortune 500 Tools & Fastening Manufacturer
A wire lifter re-routed from an 8-week tooling cycle to metal additive: delivered in 9 days at half the cost per part.
- Cost reduction per part
- 50%
- Lead time, down from 8 weeks
- 9 days
Results achieved using the manufacturing intelligence technology that now powers Arcessio. $120 to $61 per part at 15 units/year. Individual results vary. End-use component, not a fleet deployment.
02 / HOW IT WORKS
From portfolio to production.
- 01
Upload
Bring your CAD files, drawings, and requirements.
- 02
Find alternatives
AI compares processes, materials, and costs.
- 03
Validate
Engineers and suppliers review suitability.
- 04
Source
Connect with qualified suppliers near demand.
Expert validation before production. Local sourcing depends on qualified supplier availability.
03 / PORTFOLIO INTELLIGENCE

Less inventory. Less waste. More equipment uptime.
Buy only what you need
Avoid unnecessary minimum order quantities where tooling-free alternatives are viable.
Reduce total spare-part costs
Lower tooling, excess purchasing, storage, and obsolescence exposure.
Shorten repair delays
Find faster manufacturing and sourcing options for urgent replacements.
Manufacture closer to demand
Identify qualified local or regional suppliers instead of shipping every part from centralized stock.

What these numbers mean
- Released cash = inventory × eligible share × inventory reduction. It reduces inventory investment, rather than adding profit or automatically increasing accounting net working capital.
- Tooling savings = annual NRE (non-recurring engineering), tooling, and setup spend × eligible share × fee avoidance. Existing sunk tooling costs are not recoverable.
- Shipping savings = annual shipping spend × eligible share × shipping reduction.
- Storage, scrap, and financing savings each use released cash × their separate annual rate. Warehouse savings assume avoidable costs, not fixed lease costs.
- Scrap is recurring avoided write-offs on stock no longer held, not recovery of existing scrap. Financing reflects avoided interest if borrowing falls; otherwise it represents an opportunity-cost estimate.
- Net annual savings subtract annual platform/operating costs and additional small-batch production costs. Year 1 also subtracts implementation. ROI excludes cash release; payback excludes cash release and assumes steady-state savings without a rollout ramp.
- Defaults assume $10M inventory, 30% eligible, 60% stock reduction, 100% eligible tooling-fee avoidance, 60% eligible shipping reduction, 8% storage, 8% financing, and 12% scrap. Replace these illustrative assumptions with your own verified data.
SPARE PARTS / FAQ
Questions before you start?
Can all spare parts be converted to additive manufacturing?
No. Arcessio identifies suitable candidates based on geometry, materials, tolerances, performance requirements, and manufacturing economics.
Do we need CAD files for every part?
Arcessio can analyze supported CAD models and engineering drawings. Additional engineering work may be needed for incomplete or legacy documentation.
Can we use our existing suppliers?
Yes. Arcessio supports collaboration with suppliers while helping identify additional qualified manufacturing options.
Who validates AI recommendations?
Engineering and supplier experts review proposed changes before approval and production.
Is additive manufacturing always the best option?
No. Arcessio evaluates alternative manufacturing technologies, including additive manufacturing and CNC machining, to identify the most suitable option for each part.
