- a monitored device comprising;
a consumable component having a condition that depends upon use of the monitored device by a user;
a sensor configured to detect the condition of the consumable component and generate condition data; and
a first communication unit coupled to the sensor and configured to transmit the condition data; and
an order assistance system comprising;
a second communication unit configured to receive the condition data from the first communication unit;
a processing unit; and
a storage unit coupled to the processing unit, the storage unit including non-transitory computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the processing unit, cause the processing unit to;
determine whether the consumable component requires at least one of replacement or repair by comparing the condition data with one or more maintenance parameters;
in response to a determination that the consumable component requires at least one of replacement or repair, recommending at least one of a replacement component or a repair service in accordance with one or more order parameters pre-selected by the user; and

Abstract
Systems and methods for ordering a replacement component or repair service are disclosed. According to some aspects, condition data indicating a condition of a consumable component may be generated by sensor and transmitted to an order assistance system. The order assistance system may determine whether the consumable component requires at least one of replacement or repair by comparing the condition data with one or more maintenance parameters. Additionally, in response to a determination that the consumable component requires at least one of replacement or repair, the order assistance system may recommend at least one of a replacement component or a repair service in accordance with one or more order parameters pre-selected by a user. In some aspects, an insurance policy associated with the consumable component may be adjusted based on the successful repair or replacement of the consumable component.
