debido a que hubo siniestros/ averías/ cancelaciones puntuales/ de forma puntual de consumibles
Explanation:
"one-off" --> único, puntual, extraordinario

"Write-off" --> descartado, siniestro total, cancelación.

Creo que se refiere a que algunas de las piezas consumibles se averiaron y descartaron de forma puntual y han supuesto un gasto extra, creo...

Espero que te sirva, suerte, un saludo!
