PART RECOVERY
IEC 62402

Obsolescence management does not end with the analysis.

DIN EN IEC 62402 describes a structured approach to managing obsolescence risk across the entire lifecycle of technical systems.

PART RECOVERY supports companies in executing recovery measures within existing obsolescence management processes.

Our focus is on the Resolution and Implementation phases.

Recovery Assessment

From obsolescence to availability

IEC 62402 describes the path from identifying an obsolescence risk to restoring availability.

PART RECOVERY supports companies in the practical execution of that path.

The challenge starts after the analysis.

Once an obsolescence case is identified, technical, regulatory and commercial requirements must be met at the same time.

In regulated industries the approval and evidence path is often more demanding than manufacturing the part itself.

Recovery, not technology

Recovery projects are not defined by manufacturing technology. They are defined by requirements.

Depending on the case, different routes may be needed:

  • 🔬 Reverse Engineering
  • 🛠️ Repair
  • 🏭 Re-manufacturing
  • 🧪 Material substitution
  • 📐 Re-design
  • ⚙️ Alternative manufacturing strategies

Technology follows the requirements.

Not the other way around.

Recovery Preparedness

Recovery Preparedness

IEC 62402 looks at more than current obsolescence cases. Preparing for future obsolescence risk is a core element.

For critical components, recovery measures can be prepared years before the obsolescence event itself.

This lowers risk, shortens reaction times and simplifies later approvals.

Recovery Packages

For especially critical components, Recovery Packages can be built up in advance. They may contain:

  • 🧊 CAD reconstructions
  • 📐 Drawings
  • 🧪 Material information
  • 🔩 Reference samples
  • ✅ Inspection requirements
  • 📄 Approval path documentation
  • 🛣️ Recommended recovery strategies
Recovery Execution Partner

Recovery Execution Partner

PART RECOVERY does not replace existing obsolescence management processes.

PART RECOVERY complements them.

We support companies in the technical execution of recovery measures for long-life and regulated assets.

Our aim is not the manufacture of a part.

Our aim is the restoration of availability.
