We have systems in place to manage inventories, release them when signaled, and then replenish them according to customer -specific planning and/or actual usage. For this program, we propose a Central Stores Storeroom model, incorporating supplier - consigned inventory for Central Stores. In this model, the City of Santa Ana and Shamrock will identify desired inventory stocking levels, based upon historical usage, for Central Stores. Shamrock will consign and manage Central Stores inventories for point -of -use distribution to the City of Santa Ana requisitioners (i.e., point of purchase/title transfer) from Central Stores, supported by additional dedicated inventories at Shamrock's main DC for replenishment, as determined. This model provides active management of on -site Central Stores inventories, ensuring inventory availability at point -of -use and for non -planned usage, etc., while also addressing reduced storage space considerations. Inventories will be managed through visual inspection with necessary replenishment processed electronically. 25D-38
