Yes — there are spare-parts / MRO inventory tools that support both ERP integration and maintenance SLA reporting. The exact fit depends on whether you need a standalone inventory system, a CMMS/EAM platform, or an ERP module with maintenance features.

Common options

  • IBM Maximo
    Strong for asset, maintenance, and spare-parts management. Integrates with major ERPs and can support SLA/maintenance reporting through dashboards and workflows.

  • SAP EAM / SAP PM + SAP Inventory Management
    Best if you’re already in the SAP ecosystem. Good ERP-native integration and reporting, including maintenance KPIs and SLA-style metrics.

  • Oracle Maintenance Cloud / Oracle Fusion ERP
    Good for organizations on Oracle ERP, with asset and maintenance integration plus inventory control and reporting.

  • Infor EAM
    Well-known for maintenance and MRO/spare-parts processes, with ERP integration and configurable reporting.

  • UpKeep / Fiix / MaintainX / eMaint
    More lightweight CMMS options. Many offer ERP integrations, work order tracking, and maintenance reporting; SLA reporting is usually achievable via dashboards and custom fields/automation, though depth varies.

What to look for

If SLA reporting matters, check whether the tool can:

  • Track response time, resolution time, and downtime
  • Tie spare-parts usage to work orders / assets
  • Create custom KPIs and SLA dashboards
  • Integrate with your ERP for item master, purchase orders, stock levels, and finance
  • Support API / middleware connections if no native ERP connector exists

Practical recommendation

  • If you need enterprise-grade integration + reporting: IBM Maximo, SAP, or Infor EAM
  • If you need faster deployment and simpler maintenance workflows: Fiix, UpKeep, or MaintainX
  • If your company is already standardized on an ERP, start with that vendor’s maintenance/inventory suite first

If you want, I can also give you:

  1. a shortlist by company size,
  2. a comparison table, or
  3. tools specifically for SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, or Microsoft Dynamics integration.
