Asset & Inventory Manager

Capita Resourcing – DE&S MoD Abbeywood – Bristol – August 2013 to March 2014

Employed by Capita on behalf of DE&S MoD Abbeywood I work on the PMT team. My role consists of being the Asset & Inventory Manager for the Protected Mobility Programme which looks after the armoured vehicle out on operations and within the UK. Within this I help control the Task Issue Procedure for the Urgent Spares Requirements that are required. This starts from when i receive the demand and follow it all the way through the Supply Chain process to the customer. I look after 13 different vehicle platforms. I also deal with all the transport booking requests that require the vehicles to be moved by other Logistical means, so booking through a central haulage booking system. I follow this from when i make the application all the way through to delivery and then obtain the estimated Costings for the financial teams here at PMT. Another main part of my role is dealing with the migration of the vehicle data being transferred from Asset management systems. Working with Task Issues I am constantly working along all the vehicle platforms making sure that their requirements for moving consumables or repairable items to specific places. This

means working closely with Bicester & Donnington (VITAL, SS3 & GLOBAL) and other outside Industrial Suppliers making sure that there is sufficient stock to satisfy demand (Earmarking) when needed. Also a big part of my Asset Management role is taking care of the Merlin to James Migration; this is where all the vehicles are tracked using JAMES (Joint Asset Management & Engineering Solution) and MERLIN prior to the system being switched off. Using these two systems I can track where new platforms have been birthed into the field, and therefore issue to depot, unit or industry.
