Proposed Tasks

Critical and Immediate

• Establish Minimum Stock Levels
  Determine the minimum stock levels for each material to avoid disruption in production. This will be used to set up reordering reminders.
• Identify Key Materials for Production
  Identify and list all the key materials needed for the production of rubber products. This list will be crucial in setting up the inventory monitoring system.
• Integrate Reordering Reminders
  Integrate reordering reminders into the inventory monitoring system. The reminders should be triggered when the inventory level of any material drops below the established minimum level.
• Set Up Inventory Monitoring System
  Set up a system to monitor the inventory levels of all key materials. The system should be able to provide real-time data on inventory levels.

Critical but not Immediate

• Monitor System Performance
  Regularly monitor the performance of the inventory monitoring system. If there are any issues, they should be fixed immediately to prevent disruption in production.
• Test the Inventory Monitoring System
  Conduct a thorough test of the inventory monitoring system to ensure it's working as expected. Any issues identified during the test should be fixed immediately.
• Train Staff on Using the System
  Train all relevant staff on how to use the inventory monitoring system. They should understand how to interpret the data and act on the reordering reminders.
• Update System as Needed
  Update the inventory monitoring system as needed. This could be due to changes in production needs, availability of materials, etc.

Not Critical but Immediate

• Conduct Regular Inventory Audits
  Conduct regular inventory audits to ensure the accuracy of the data provided by the inventory monitoring system.
• Establish Backup Suppliers
  Establish relationships with backup suppliers. This will ensure a steady supply of materials even if there's an issue with the main suppliers.
• Review Reordering Process
  Regularly review the reordering process to ensure it's efficient and effective. Make improvements as needed.
• Review Supplier Contracts
  Review contracts with suppliers. Negotiate better terms if possible to ensure a steady supply of materials.

Not Critical or Immediate

• Evaluate System Effectiveness
  Evaluate the effectiveness of the inventory monitoring system after it has been in use for some time. If it's not effective, it should be improved or replaced.
• Monitor Market Trends
  Keep an eye on market trends. If there's going to be an increase in the demand for rubber products, the inventory levels should be adjusted accordingly.
• Monitor Supplier Performance
  Monitor the performance of the suppliers. If they're not delivering the materials on time, it could disrupt production.
• Monitor Waste Levels
  Monitor waste levels during production. If there's a lot of waste, it means the materials are not being used efficiently.
• Review Material Quality
  Regularly review the quality of the materials being delivered by the suppliers. If the quality is not up to standard, it could affect the quality of the finished products.
• Review Material Usage
  Regularly review how the materials are being used in production. If there are any inefficiencies, they should be addressed to ensure optimal use of materials.
• Review Production Schedule
  Review the production schedule regularly. If there are any changes, the inventory levels should be adjusted accordingly.
• Review Storage Conditions
  Regularly review the storage conditions for the materials. If the conditions are not optimal, it could affect the quality of the materials and, in turn, the finished products.
