Excellent experience

South African Police Service ( supply chain division) is a dynamic work environment. We deal with managing the organization assets. We compile weekly and monthly reports and also national reports. I work excellent with my colleagues and tasks given are team work projects. I have learned so much, I now know how to use the provisioning administration system and also know how to compile reports. I can also do inspections. I can monitor the South African Police Service asset e.g. firearms, bulletproof ,machines,it equipment. I enjoy doing inspections and compiling the national reports. Doing inspections its a challenge because you question co-workers and supervisors.

Pros: great opportunity
Cons: working with people that are not qualified
