Maintenance, repair and operating materials (MRO) refer to products, indirect materials or consumable items necessary to keep the organization running and support activities. MRO items include items such as lubricants, cleaning supplies, safety equipment, office supplies, and other materials used in day-to-day production and maintenance activities. Supplies and consumables are broader categories that can include other types of items beyond MRO materials, and tangible goods refer to any physical product that can be sold or purchased, which is not specific to support activities.
