GENERAL INFORMATION 1.. Background. The current shelving in the VA San Diego Central Distrubution Warehouse is outdated and not designed for medical supply storage. The current shelving is designed for bulk products that are on pallets or in boxes. This doesn t meet standards set by the Joint Commission or by the Quality Control inspection survey that is conducted annually. Scope. Due to the complexity of the transition of the old shelves to the new shelves as the Warehouse can t be shut down for any time period and due to the end of year requirements that Supply Chain Management is responsible for we don t need the shelving to be delivered until late October and install in November between Veterans Day and Thanksgiving as this will give us the most flexibility and have the least effect on daily operations. 3. Specific Tasks. The vendor will be responsible for the building of all of the new shelving which will occur in our receiving cage. As storage racks are completed the old shelving will be taken apart and removed by VA San Diego personnel. This will need to be done in phases to ensure medical supplies aren t mixed up as it is critical not to affect patient safety. The new shelving will installed by the vendor until all shelving has been completed. This will need to occur during non-operational hours between 3:30P.M and 7:00 A.M. again to not effect day tot day operations. Task 1 - Enterprise Management Controls. 4.
