Study Notes

Upon completion of a project, the Project Manager and Supply Chain Manager review any surplus materials.
Materials can be returned to inventory or disposed of based on guidelines.
Materials proposed for disposal should be no longer fit for use, in excess of requirements, obsolete, or damaged.
All disposal requests must be executed in a controlled, detailed, and transparent manner.
The Disposal Request Form (DRF) is used to initiate a disposal process and track its progression.
For stock items, the asset holder identifies materials to be written off and disposed of, obtains approval from the asset owner, and forwards the approved DRF to the SCM MRP Controller.
For stock items, the SCM MRP Controller registers the DRF details, circulates it to other departments, arranges for the transfer of materials if they can be used elsewhere in NNPC, and forwards the DRF and all documentation to Finance & Accounts for financial adjustments.
For assets that cannot be used elsewhere in NNPC, the SCM MRP Controller forwards the DRF and all backing documentation to Finance & Accounts for the insertion of the book value and removal from the asset register.
The SCM MRP Controller reviews the DRF to ascertain if a potential hazard exists and makes appropriate recommendations based on the review.
Methods of disposal include sales to third party (open bidding), sales by auction, and destruction.
The approved DRF with all relevant documents is forwarded to the Assets Disposal Committee to commence the disposal process.
