SKUduction by Choice Manufactured Parts - An Appliance Repair Industry Solution
"SKUduction is an innovative approach to aftermarket appliance parts management, combining SKU (stock keeping unit) and Reduction into a single concept: 'Repair More. Stock Less.'" - Choice Manufactured Parts
Ideally, every service call would be resolved in one visit. Return trips waste technician time, burn fuel, wear down vehicles, tax customer patience, and drain profit margins. SKUduction helps techs carry what they need, when they need it, so that they can fix appliances on the first trip more often.

Universal or Multi-fit Aftermarket Appliance Parts
Many OEM appliance parts are functionally identical but vary in small ways, such as; mounting configurations, wiring harnesses, or cosmetic details. This creates unnecessary inventory complexity for appliance repair technicians.
SKUduction solves this problem by:
- Identifying OEM parts with similarities across multiple brands/models.
- Engineering universal or multi-fit replacement parts, such as adaptable mounting systems or included hardware, that allow one part to replace many.
- Reducing inventory size while maintaining, or, in some cases even expanding service coverage.
For example, The DP1 and DP2 drain pumps are near universal in their application. With just a set of DP1 & DP2 drain motors in your service vehicle, you can replace most residential washer drain motors in the field that you may not have even normally stocked otherwise.
