Store Management is an important aspect in a construction site. Material requirement should be calculated and the orders should be placed in advance so that material is readily available when work begins. The site stores in this site mainly manage receiving, issuing and storing of material and the maintenance of plant & equipments. Characteristics Of A Well Managed Store Availability of materials whenever required The storage quantity should neither be too much as it would increase the storage cost and the material may get deteriorated. On the other hand the stock levels should not be too low as a material shortage may lead to delays of the project. The optimum may vary from site to site, item to item or supplier to supplier. Yet it is a good practice to keep one week’s requirement in stock. Material should be stored in such a manner that they are easily accessible, not subjected to environmental damages and would not obstruct the site traffic. Using the FIFO basis in i...
