• Clean up inventory documentation and ensure part descriptions, categories, and locations are properly maintained.
• Assist with mid-project and final inventory audits to validate improvements and inventory accuracy.
• Help technicians and other team members locate parts and answer questions regarding inventory availability.
• Support additional inventory and parts room activities as needed.

Month 1: Conduct initial cycle counts, identify missing descriptions and incorrect quantities, and begin shelf organization and labeling.
Months 2–3: Complete inventory system cleanup, add or update part descriptions, and process excess parts for return to inventory.
Months 4–5: Conduct in-depth cycle counts, correct remaining discrepancies, and finalize the organization of shelves and storage areas.
Month 6: Prepare for the final inventory audit, confirm the accuracy of inventory records, and document completed improvements for project handoff.
