COPY. (3066 COPY. To Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} from R.{Sir Henry Royce} Copy to J.{Mr Johnson W.M.} R1/P 2. 12. 13. X/034 Standardisation of Chassis Parts. WORS/T281113. Good! I agree that it should be done immediately. Enclosed Standardisation Sheet. Cannot a consultation be made with regard to improvements in the management of the stores. 1. There is a scheme which has been in vogue a long time of sending supervision sheets first to the Stores for a report of the stock before any fresh parts are ordered for a new series. 2. There should also be a scheme of appropriated stock taken to a special section of the Stores, until the series for which it is appropriated come round; so there would be the following sections:- Current series section. Future series section (appropriated). General, Repairs and Spares. F.H.R. | ||
