Abstract: Current usage metrics are maintained for a consumable of a resource. A history of usage metrics associated with consumable and other consumables used by the resource are acquired for the resource. A predicted date for which the consumable will need a replacement consumable is predicted based on one or more of the current usage metrics and the history of usage metrics. The replacement consumable is ordered on a second date that precedes the predicted date ensuring that the replacement consumable arrives at a site where the resource is located before the predicted date.
