Obsolescence is an ever-present notion in our society, where everything is constantly changing. It is defined by the inability to obtain a certain product on the market, for whatever reason. Reasons for obsolescence include technological progress, natural resource depletion, supplier bankruptcy, geopolitical conflicts and regulations. <\/em><\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Obsolescence is part of the industry’s current business model, representing both a risk and an opportunity. Obsolescence is the fourth phase in a product’s life cycle. After the phases of launch, growth and maturation comes the phase of decline, culminating in product obsolescence and exit from the market. In the industrial sector, obsolescence concerns the materials, chemicals and equipment used in the production process. The two main risks associated with obsolescence are a logistical breakdown due to the obsolescence of a component in the production chain, and an increase in prices and delivery times for components at the end of their life cycle. <\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Managing obsolescence is a strategic challenge for industrial companies. It is an essential step in a preventive maintenance approach to ensure the logistical continuity of production. It also concerns design issues dealt with by engineering departments, such as anticipating solutions for replacing an obsolete product. Adopting a proactive obsolescence policy is an essential part of the company’s overall risk management approach. <\/span><\/p>\n

A number of actions can be taken to better manage obsolescence-related issues. First, obsolescence needs to be prevented, identified and analyzed, then action plans (preventive or curative) need to be drawn up and implemented. <\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

To avoid the surprise effect, it is necessary to set up a preventive procedure to detect the risks of obsolescence. This involves a phase of anticipation and development of preventive action plans. To achieve this, the company’s experts must be aware of obsolescence processes and be able to anticipate the risks of such a phenomenon. At this stage, the integration of obsolescence monitoring <\/b>software tools is essential. The aim is to accurately determine the level of availability of products and their entry into a phase of decline. At the same time, we need to monitor changes in regulations concerning substances hazardous to the environment and human health (REACh, RoHS), or concerning materials from conflict zones (Conflict Minerals). <\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
