STORES UNIT

The Supply and Stores Unit of Wesley College of Education plays an important role in the college. It is the corporate purpose of the stores unit to ensure that the college operations, in whatever form, are not interrupted by the lack of materials, equipment and supplies in their right quality and quantity, nor are the operations made unnecessarily expensive through over procurement, deterioration and the lack of proper care and control of supplies.

Mission

It is our mission to ensure that when goods are held in store every care is taken to ensure that they are maintained in a condition fit for issue and use, and are released from store only to properly authorized persons for properly authorized purposes.
Stockholdings are at all times kept to an economic minimum consistent with the maintenance of an effective service level.
