Abstract: A storage medium encoded with machine-readable computer program code for facilitating database management processes for an enterprise is provided. The storage medium includes instructions for causing a computer to implement a method. The method includes extracting part data relating to a part from a data storage device, retrieving activity data related to the part, which includes demand data, purchase data, and creation data. The method further includes evaluating the part data and the activity data, associating a status code with the part data based upon results of the evaluation, and storing the part data and the status code in the data storage device. The database management processes are accomplished by a parts database management software application.
