Ordering and Handling Materials for Major Public Works Department Jobs.

Abstract

This thesis examines the procedures for obtaining materials for major jobs on real property facilities by the Public Works Department at a Naval Shore Activity. A detailed description is provided of the current procedures at the Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, California, for identifying, ordering, monitoring, receiving, storing and retrieving the needed items. Discussion is focused on those methods which are considered inefficient and on alternative methods to supplant them. The thesis concludes that the efficiency of the current procedures can be significantly improved and makes specific recommendations to effect the improvements. A summary of all recommendations is provided in the concluding chapter. (Author)
