How many problems? What is causing them? How do we correct and reduce these
ordering errors?
![Page 5: DLAR TOWN HALL APRIL 22, 2010](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070415/56814e58550346895dbbf1e6/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
DLAR personnel collected and monitored the errors over the last three months.
We identified some “trends” and came up with some ideas which significantly reduced the errors.

Cause

Errors were made by the procurement officer during the ordering process.
Most errors (10 of 12) were made on Taconic orders.◦ This is significant due to the short “turn-around”
time. i.e. order on Monday, delivered on Friday ** Remember: a 3-day acclimation period is required,
so those animals received on Friday should not be used until Monday without prior IACUC approval

Errors were made due to communication errors between lab personnel and DLAR.◦ Lab personnel did not receive the email in time to
respond for that week. The animals were not ordered.

Vendor errors were indentified. Credits and replacements were issued where applicable.

On March 10th, 2010, the Procurement Officer started to approve orders as soon as he received them , instead of waiting until they all arrived on the deadline date.
Reminded all users to be diligent about checking the “creator’s” email when they have placed animal orders, and to look for counter offers and order/strain inquiries.
Modified the field so that the delivery location is required to place the order.
