When the lowest satisfactory tenders are ascertained, orders on the triplicate official order form are placed for items selected from each tender. The original copy is sent to the supplier, the duplicate copy is retained in the Purchasing Department, and the triplicate copy forwarded to the department for which the goods are ordered.

The supplies are delivered to the department ordering them, and their receipt vouched for in the space provided on the back of the pink copy of the order form, which is returned to the Purchasing Department.

All invoices for goods supplied are first delivered to the Purchasing Department, where they are checked with the deliveries and prices on the (pink) copy of the order returned from the department, after which they are forwarded to the department concerned for the purpose of accounting.

The bulk of the material used by the Corporation is stored at Mount Roskill Tramway Depot, and from there the various departments are supplied weekly. S. M. FARRELLY, Officer in Charge.
