Located at 3012 Gold Canal, Rancho Cordova, the
Logistics facility contains the necessary office space, repair facilities
and warehouse to meet the needs of the District. Through the efforts of an
authorized staff of 13, the Logistics Division supplies District personnel
with office, janitorial and EMS supplies. Additionally, the division
services and repairs self-contained breathing apparatus, performs limited
repairs on some emergency equipment (chain saws, hose, nozzles, ladder
testing, extinguisher servicing, etc.) and issues/repairs protective
clothing. In order to manage the flow of supplies, procedures have been
developed for shipping, receiving, purchasing, tracking and delivery.
Support for special projects is provided upon request.
The division has developed specific procedures for the
routine ordering of supplies. Using this process, employees can submit
electronic order requests directly to the Logistics Division. An average of
168 supply requests are processed per month. Supplies are delivered to 58
locations each business day, 43 of which are fire stations. In order to
accomplish this task, the District has been divided into two delivery
routes. 50,000 miles are driven each year to provide this service. |
