             Subpart 101-27.3_Maximizing Use of Inventories

 

Sec. 101-27.303-2  Redistribution.



    If the long supply of an item remains greater than 10 percent of the 

total stock of an item despite efforts to cancel or transfer the long 

supply as provided in Sec. 101-27.303-1, the inventory manager shall 

offer the long supply to another agency or other agencies in accordance 

with this Sec. 101-27.303-2. Before offering a long supply to any 

agency, the inventory manager shall determine whether the item to be 

offered is a centrally managed item or an agency managed item. A 

centrally managed item is an item of supply or equipment which

forms part of an inventory of an agency performing a mission of storage 

and distribution to other Government activities; e.g., GSA and DSA. An 

agency managed item is a procured item that forms a part of a controlled 

inventory of an agency and its activities for issue internally for its 

own use. After determining whether the item to be offered is an agency 

or centrally managed item, the inventory manager shall:

    (a) Offer centrally managed items to the agency managing the item 

for return and credit in accordance with the procedures established by 

that agency; and

    (b) Offer agency managed items to other agencies which manage the 

same item. Reimbursement shall be arranged by the agencies effecting the 

inventory transfer. The responsibility of locating agencies or 

activities requiring these items shall rest with the agency holding the 

long supply. However, agencies may receive a list of Government 

activities using particular national stock numbers by writing to the 

General Services Administration (FFL), Washington, DC 20406.
