Order Management Unit Leader
The Order Management Unit Leader is in charge of all county maintained inventory at the site. They are responsible for utilizing the Inventory Management System to track incomin and outgoing order status, inventory counts and reports, and oversee delivery routing. The Order Management Unit Leader is expected to relay specific information to the RSS Warehouse Manager such as:
- Expected incoming and outgoing delivery times
- Inventory currently in-stock
- Any needs the Warehouse may have
This person supervises:
- Inventory Management System Specialist - County personnel who are trained in the usage of the Inventory Management System. This is a digital system which contains the current inventory in the Warehouse and prints all of the documentation for the Warehouse.
- Runners - County personnel who relay paperwork and requests between Warehouse personnel.
- Mapping System Specialist - In some instances, a digital mapping system may be supplied to the Warehouse for the purpose of printing delivery maps. When this happens, a trained specialist will accompany the computer which houses this system. For those entities who DO NOT utilize this system, a Resource binder will be available with delivery maps and instructions for all Point of Dispensing (POD) facilities which have been activated.
The County inventory management system tends to be a bit more cumbersome than the inventory management systems currently in use by the Warehouse. They do not utilize bar codes scanners and voice controlled pick lists like our Warehouse partners are used to. For this reason, the Order Management Unit Leader is typically a County-appointed staff person.
