The dominant models for inventory control of repairable items, both in the literature and in practical applications, are based on the assumption of ample repair capacity.

We study a support system for a fleet of technical systems. Our tasks are to determine the amount of spares and test equipment necessary for the support system to operate satisfactorily and to determine where repair should take place. Our decisions are made on an economical basis, or more precisely,
