SURPLUS INVENTORY

Surplus components

Unused does not necessarily mean unusable. Source, quantity and condition are the starting point for a sensible next use.

STARTING POINT

Assess reuse potential through lot identity, packaging and storage condition.

Begin with the information available. Uncertain details can be clarified in turn.

Prepare an enquiry

PROJECT NOTES

Make the scope specific.

01

Keep lots identifiable

Retain existing part numbers, packaging labels and purchasing records. List different sources, dates and packaging conditions separately.

02

Condition before use

Identify unopened stock, previously installed parts, returns and long-stored items. Agree any testing separately; appearance is not proof of performance.

03

A list both sides can check

Use the same material list for enquiry, counting and handover. Record quantity differences, packaging changes and excluded items separately.

Q & A

Before we start.

Can I enquire without complete purchasing records?

Describe the records available and what is missing. Source, authority to transfer and condition still need to be established; an enquiry is not acceptance.

Is there an instant price?

Use, condition and quantity differ between lots. An indicative quote needs an identifiable list; this site does not substitute a generic rate for that review.

LET’S TALK

Start with a clear list.

Tell us the material, quantity and condition. Then we can discuss what comes next.
