CHASSIS LISTS OF PARTS - PRODUCTION.

Attached hereto is a sample of the revised LOP.
sheet, which has now been approved by the Management.

As will be seen, we have utilised a new method
of reproduction, which enables us to issue a complete set of
LOP's to each Department. This will avoid the necessity for
all Departments referring to the Design Drawing Office blue-
prints.

To enable a sufficient number of copies to be
produced, will you kindly estimate the needs of your Department
and give us an early reply.

The figure returned will form the official issue,
and we will then keep that number of copies up-to-date.

It should be noted that the new LOP. will replace
the Works Supervision Sheet.

BY {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} /Ald. {F. Allwood - Experimental Design} will produce and store the zinc sheets.
from which the LOP. sheets are produced.
