Availability before a stage starts
Checking stock levels and site needs separately makes it harder to prepare the work.
You match requirements against materials that are available and on order.
When requests from site are not linked to stock levels and deliveries, the company buys too late or reorders what it already has.
PROBLEMSOLUTIONRESULT
Checking stock levels and site needs separately makes it harder to prepare the work.
You match requirements against materials that are available and on order.A delayed delivery can push back later tasks and send a crew out without the resources it needs.
Order and delivery date information helps you prepare the next stage better.Without records, it is hard to tell where equipment is needed and who is using it.
You assign resources to a site and check their history.Managers, stores staff and people ordering materials work more efficiently when requirements from the project are linked to stock, delivery and equipment.
A missing material delays a task. Surplus purchases tie up the budget. Without a shared register it is hard to check availability and plan deliveries.
Example: a manager plans a stage that needs cable and fittings. Before you order materials, you check available stock, reservations and what is already on its way to site.
DATAWORKDECISION
The catalogue shows quantities received at a location, the minimum level and stock that is already reserved. You know what is missing before a stage starts.
Link the items you need to the site. The person responsible can prepare the order and track its documents.
Record an issue from stores, receipt of a delivery or a transfer of surplus to where it will be used. Assign equipment to a site and a person.
Reservations, issues and returns update availability. The history lets you see where a material or item of equipment went.
The catalogue, stock levels and prices help you establish what is available and what must be ordered before the next stage of work.

EVERYTHINGFOR THESAMEPRICE
Items, prices and units in one catalogue to use across sites.
You see what a particular site needs and what is available in stock.
Needs reported from the field go onto the list of materials and deliveries.
You organise suppliers, orders and delivery dates.
Recording usage helps link the work done to the actual costs.
You check equipment availability and assign it to the right stage of work.
Assign materials and equipment to the stages where they will be used.
You check which resources were used on the project.
Start with the materials your first project needs. See whether a shared view helps with day-to-day planning.
One site is enough to judge this way of working.
