INVENTORY AND MATERIALS

  1. Maintain a current inventory of all parts in the team’s inventory; this inventory should also specify the location and disposition of the part (e.g. which box, on the prototype, on the robot, disposed of, etc.)
  2. Order replacements for SPI parts found to be defective; these can be replace under warranty.
  3. Order additional parts as required. The Treasurer will keep track of the parts budget so make sure the Treasurer signs off on all orders before they are submitted.
  4. Chapter 4 contains a number of specific provisions for technical compliance of spare parts. You will need to check each order against the rule book to make sure we comply with the following:
    1. Only functionally identical parts are allowed for replacement of kit parts.
    2. Ensure that SPI parts used in the final robot do not exceed a total value of $1200
    3. Ensure that outside parts used on the final robot do not exceed the quantities listed in the rules
    4. Lost or damaged kit parts may only be replaced by identical parts.
  5. Keep a running list of all parts used in the final robot as it is being constructed. The list should give the part name, applicable part number, source and cost.
  6. Prepare inventory lists of all parts and tools, by box, for everything being taken to Richmond and Florida; coordinate with the pit crew to make sure the list covers everything they will need. Use these checklists when packing and sealing each box to make sure you pack everything that will be needed.
