I'm new where I am and we are using a very basic program for inventory. Whenever I need a consumable part I am told to look for it, and when I ask if the consumables have an area or bin location, I was told that it's tracked on a "need basis". Pretty much, if I wanna look up consumable part on the system, it's not listed, and I have to physically look for it. The reason I was told, was because then we'd have to track it. The problem with this system is that parts are fairly unorganized, and sometimes we are required to order the part we need now and wait up to a week for it to arrive. Additionally, if we do run out, we have to look up the part all over again in the parts catalog. (specific examples include pneumatic gaskets or bearing seals, not nuts and bolts)
What is the easiest way to track these parts? Should I recommend we start putting them in the system?
