Upon a short investigation into our office supplies, we have identified certain areas of our operation that could be effected by the current Japanese disaster.
On a daily basis each of us most probably uses a minimum of five items that were manufactured in Japan or obtain spare parts and/or consumables from a Japanese factory.
Good planning, right now, today, can have you saving the day for your company in the near future…bad planning could leave you running around like headless chickens.
A personal list of Japanese items I have used today so far:
My printer
My printer ink
An eraser
A calculator
A high performance waterproof pen
A gel pen
A telephone
I am also just about to send off a printing order - these will be printed on a Japanese photocopier. Makes you think doesn't it?
Time to take stock.
