A “FRAMEWORK” TO MANAGE REPAIRABLE SUPPLIES USING R- STUDIO SOFTWARE.

This paper aims to propose a “framework” to calculate the ideal turnover quantity of repairable supplies, knowing the number of items removed from a given set of equipment and the number of items that return from the repair center in serviceable conditions. The proposed “framework” was developed using the R-Studio platform. To test the effectiveness of this proposal, data from the literature were utilized, leading to the observation that there was no prevalence in the best choice of sampling distribution, although the Negative Binomial distribution proved to be more suitable in 5 out of the 15 cases analyzed. Finally, it was concluded that the present “framework” has a simple implementation, requiring only minimal user data collection and very few financial resources, since R-Studio is a free software.
