storage facility, the requisition is approved by an appropriate member of
management and forwarded manually or electronically to the warehouse
supervisor.
OFF-SITE MOVEMENTS

However, to facilitate the continuous flow of activities in support of
organizational objectives. Policy permits home or other off-site use of
equipment.
