maintien sur parc de stockage

En coupant yardhold en "yard hold",cela pourrait bien avoir le sens indiqué.

YYY a décidé un maintien sur parc de stockage en vue de réaliser une inspection des moteurs déjà livrés à l'usine YYY.

It probably means they stopped using the suspected motors that were in the storage area until they could be inspected.

"yardhold" => yard hold ... to place a "hold" (stop any processes) on anything in the "yard" (a storage or receiving area, usually outdoors). (a similar expresison in semiconductors is a "fab hold" ... to stop using or shipping anything from a certain production area until a problem can be resolved).
Peer comment(s):

agree RHELLER : this would be my understanding...a suspension of inventory movement pending inspection/audit
