1.4 OUTBOUND SHIPPING
SCOPE
This procedure describes the actions to be taken when processing material out of the facility for onward shipment to pre-identified and scheduled destinations. Once material is cross-docked and outbound loading is completed (see PM12), the trailer load closeout is performed to initiate the outbound process.
Critical material (TAB) and deconsolidated shipments for other Wal-Mart distribution centers (DSDC) have specific processing requirements that are noted in this process. Details of all outbound shipment releases will be recorded into the respective systems (GFCS and DC Yard) and filed by designated dock and office staff.
RESPONSIBILITY
The Facility Manager is responsible for all actions described in this procedure and for the provision of sufficient and adequately trained resources.
The Operations Manager and Office Manager are responsible for ensuring all aspects of this procedure are performed, including the allocation of workloads.
Dock and Office Supervisors and Clerks are responsible for ensuring all of the processes described in this procedure are effectively completed.
Questions on this procedure should be raised with the Facility Manager.
MEASUREMENTS
It is expected that the following elements can be measured:
1. 100% of outbound shipments will be loaded and verified against source documents.
2. 100% outbound material will be inspected with zero parts being handled or loaded improperly.
3. All failures will be recorded and used as the performance measure of the outbound shipping process.
PROCEDURE
See flow chart on next page.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
Where poor loading (not meeting Wal-Mart-specified requirements) on any outbound trailers is identified, document and identify with digital camera and fill out all pertinent information to a discrepancy report and forward to the dock supervisor or a Manager.
Return material will be processed according to their tagged instructions (i.e. return to Supplier). Material to be returned directly to supplier must have an RMA number cut by Wal-Mart. Untagged return material will be called into the Wal-Mart Material department for proper disposition.
