220 Supply Crib Automation

Problem

Anyone can submit a 220 Supply Crib part request for consumableswithout review and thousands of dollars are lost in duplicate or unnecessary orders. 

Solution

Design a tool allowing operators or manufacturing engineers to easily submit part requests and an approval process for module leaders and business unit leaders. Create an incoming queue for crib attendants to update order statuses and track incoming requests.

Users

Operators and manufacturing engineers will use the tool to submit part requests.

Module leaders and business unit leaders will use the tool to monitor and approve incoming part requests, and ensure their departments have all necessary parts to run production.
