How Inventory & Parts Tracking Actually Looks in Property Maintenance

The Scenario

Maintenance techs pull parts from a central storeroom — filters, faucet cartridges, light fixtures. A paper sign-out sheet is the only tracking. Inventory counts are always wrong.

The Real Impact

Untracked parts inventory means emergency supply runs for items that should be in stock, plus 10–15% shrinkage that is invisible until the annual physical count.

What the Research Says

Untracked parts inventory in maintenance storerooms experiences 10–15% annual shrinkage — invisible until physical count. Maintenance repairs are the #1 daily challenge for property investors.
