The oil & gas MRO problem
MRO is the classic long tail — hundreds of suppliers, thousands of low-value orders and frequent urgent buys at a premium when a pump, valve or instrument fails. In oil & gas, downtime is expensive and safety-critical, so the temptation to spot-buy is even stronger.
Consolidating MRO onto one managed catalogue cuts the active supplier base substantially, standardises pricing across sites, and replaces reactive purchasing with planned, on-contract replenishment.
- Valves, gaskets, flanges and fittings
- Pump, seal and rotating-equipment spares
- Lubricants, greases and filtration
- Hand tools, power tools and hardware
Turnarounds, shutdowns and multi-site governance
Planned turnarounds and shutdowns create huge, concentrated demand for consumables — gaskets, bolts, blinds, abrasives, cleaning and absorbents — over a short window. Maintenance and reliability teams across upstream and downstream sites need that supply to arrive on plan.
Lapasar standardises catalogue pricing across locations and gives procurement live visibility into MRO spend by site, category and supplier — so turnaround and routine maintenance spend can be governed rather than discovered after the fact.
- Bolts, studs, blinds and flange kits
- Abrasives, welding and cutting consumables
- Spill control, absorbents and cleaning
- Filters, hoses, clamps and fittings
