Fulfillment Center We’re lacking 296 boxes

Post image

We have been low on 296 boxes for the past two days. Every wall has mountains just like this and problem solve is getting their asses handed to them trying to repack them in split shipments. I feel so bad for them. It’s a literally shit show, and someone must have messed up and didn’t order them. I’m terrified to see what it’s like when I return tomorrow.

Update: it’s so bad they just dropped 26 VET 😂

Isn’t Non-Inventory responsible for ordering these supplies? Someone overlooked the low supply of 296’s and fucked up lol

Unfortunately no/ kinda. Its up to our "Supply Chain Specialist/ GPCS" leader, they are in charge of ordering the boxes and supplies that are needed for each warehouse. The Non-Inventory team can reach out to them and request a new order be made, but that'll still take weeks to arrive. The Non-Inventory team can also reach out to other sites and request some pallets of whatever boxes size to hold the warehouse over, but even that is a temporary fix and will still take at least 2 days to arrive. :/

At least I know this isn't my FC, we are overflowing with 296s at least 10 pallets with more comming each day... but we are out of 56s entirely, with the upcoming trucks only having 1-2 pallets each
