• Maintain accurate item descriptions, manufacturer and supplier part numbers, storage locations, units of measure, and equipment parts associations; help prevent duplicate item records.
• Review inventory usage and support recommendations for minimum/maximum levels and critical spares; identify excess or obsolete stock and coordinate approved returns, repairable component tracking, and disposition.
