The increasing cost of logistics is a challenging factor for suppliers as it directly affects the cost of MRO operations. The components used in MRO operations vary in terms of size, shape, and dimensions; hence, they require dedicated transportation. Moreover, some of the MRO components need specialized logistic services owing to their fragile property, thereby, increasing the cost of logistics. However, logistic companies are acquiring contracts in the supply channel to transport the components from manufacturer to distributor or directly to the OEMs, thus reducing the overall cost of operations.

Prominent players across the globe are focusing on achieving quality standards in order to provide quality services at affordable prices. On the other hand, the pressure to adhere to demand by equipment manufacturers, along with the growing importance of cost reduction, has amplified the attractiveness of distributors and dropped the barriers to advanced and new concepts in integrated services.
