Improving The Inventory Management Mechanism In Auto Service Enterprises

Abstract

In the contemporary automotive service industry, inventory management has emerged as one of the most critical determinants of operational efficiency, service quality, and financial sustainability. Auto service enterprises operate in an environment characterized by high demand uncertainty, extensive spare-parts assortment, rapid technological change, and intense competitive pressure. Consequently, traditional inventory management approaches are often insufficient to meet modern requirements. This article provides a comprehensive and deeply analyzed examination of inventory management mechanisms in auto service enterprises and proposes systematic directions for their improvement. Using analytical, comparative, and systemic research methods, the study explores organizational, technological, economic, and human-factor dimensions of inventory management. Practical examples illustrate the real-world applicability of the proposed mechanisms. The findings demonstrate that integrated inventory management—based on analytical tools, digital technologies, risk management, and customer-oriented strategies—significantly enhances inventory turnover, reduces costs, and improves service reliability.
