    Study Notes

    Disposal of Assets

    • Assets to be disposed of are categorized into two types: non-fixed assets and fixed assets.

    Methods of Disposal

    • Depending on the type and value of the asset, the Property Management team proposes the best method of disposal.
    • Five methods of disposal:
      • Trade-in: if the asset can fetch a certain value and the Bank intends to replace it with a new model.
      • Sale by auction: if the asset is still usable but has become obsolete, not economical to maintain, or in excess of requirement.
      • Sale to staff: if the asset is still usable but has become obsolete, not economical to maintain, or in excess of requirement, and is believed to be of value to the Bank if possessed by staff.
      • Donation: if the asset is still usable but has become obsolete or in excess of requirement.
      • Disposal or throw away/burning: if the asset is no longer of any value and not usable.

    Execution of Disposal

    • For non-fixed assets:
      • The Property Administrator notifies the Procurement and Disposal Team.
      • The EPTSMD Director and Disposal Team make the final decision on value and method of disposal.
      • The Procurement and Disposal Team contacts the standby disposal service provider.
      • The team conducts the disposal as per the standby disposal agreement.
      • Any payment from the disposed item is received and handed over to the service provider.
      • The team provides an authorized document to the Store Keeper and the PPMP clerk to update the "Disposable item database".
      • A report is compiled.
    • For fixed assets:
      • If high-value, EPTSMD prepares a disposal proposal and presents it to top management for final decision.
      • If approved, the disposal is executed accordingly.

    Disposal Proposal

    • A disposal proposal should contain:
      • Details of the item: type, date of purchase, value of purchase, reason for disposal, etc.
      • The minimum selling value of the scrap.
      • The most appropriate method of disposal.

    Sale by Auction

    • The bid is floated.
    • Disposal tender forms are submitted by bidders.
    • The tender bid is evaluated by the Disposal Team and approved by the relevant approving authorities.
    • The winner is declared through formal media.
    • Sales proceeds are collected.
    • Goods are delivered to the winner.
    • Necessary documents are received and handed over for the transaction.

    Trade-in

    • The bid is floated or the relevant organization is contacted for a specific brand.
    • The bid is evaluated.
    • Disposal tender forms (trade-in) are submitted by bidders.
    • The tender bid is evaluated by the Disposal Team and approved by the relevant approving authorities.
    • The winner is declared through formal media.
    • Cash is paid and the old item is delivered to the winner.
    • The new item is received.
    • Necessary documentation is received.
    • Legality and title deed transfers are completed, if necessary (e.g., in the case of vehicle trade-in).
