Are there modifications or additional points? If so, what are the strategies to accomplish these initiatives? 1) Establish a website to search for parts and pricing, with a list of locations (operators + vendors) that stock our parts, leverage supply chain through other locations and supplier inventory management. 2) More accurate and longer projections to BC Transit purchasing and vendor commitments. 3) Setting up BC Transit owned or operated or contracted parts warehouses utilizing existing contractors, facilities or local gov’t.
