Basically. We used to keep all the stock in the module hall. Because it only ever got used in here.

Then we got moved under another division and they looked at all of the modules builds, saw that /one/ out of four was overspending and had a shit load of stuff with no stock control, and then took it all off us and put it into stores.

So far I've had multiple "we don't have this" which is countered with "we saw you take it" and magically..... It is in stock now!

What makes me laugh, is that I did my mandatory "lean" training. And that shows that stock should be kept on hand, reducing the need to stop work because you have to talk to stores.
