Identify parts that are backordered, unavailable, incorrectly ordered, or otherwise delaying repairs. Work closely with the Parts Department to escape critical machine-down parts. Engage BOMAG directly when appropriate to identify alternate sourcing, expedited shipping, or other solutions. Maintain visibility into estimated parts availability and communicate changes to service leadership, technicians, and customers. Ensure parts delays do not remain unresolved without active escalation. Work closely with technicians to understand equipment failures, diagnostic progress, repair requirements, and additional support needed.

Minimize unbilled work, unrecovered warranty expense, and revenue trapped in open work orders. Maintain accurate records to support invoicing, warranty recovery, customer communication, and management reporting.
