New Warehouse Locations
  SupplyCore has opened its newest warehouse in Kansas City, Missouri, creating a pivotal central link in its nationwide supply network.
  The 50,000 square foot Kansas City warehouse was established to help improve delivery times and to better facilitate shipments for the Fleet Automotive Support Initiative Global (FASI-G). The new warehouse is located at 1595 Erie, Building #223 in Kansas City, Missouri.
  SupplyCore’s Santa Fe Springs warehouse has literally moved across the street into a new, bigger facility with more capacity to hold MRO supplies and FASI parts. The new address is 10725 Springdale Road, Unit #4, Santa Fe Springs, California.
  SupplyCore’s warehouses have 24/7 customer service via our emergency phone number as well as emergency order shipping available on holidays and weekends.
  Each warehouse has multiple docks to facilitate simultaneous loading and unloading of fright. SupplyCore uses a variety of methods for shipping including common carrier, less than truck load, freight forwarder, and SupplyCore trucks.

  SupplyCore was recently awarded the Fleet Automotive Support Initiative Global (FASI-G) Set-Aside Contract with the Defense Logistics Agency to provide spare and replacements part for tactical and non-tactical fleet vehicles. This ten year, indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract will provide support to the U.S. Military’s land-based vehicles including the HMMWV, Bradley, and M939 Series. SupplyCore will provide this service through their facilities located in Rockford IL, Atlanta GA, Santa Fe Springs CA, Kansas City MO, and additional locations as needed.
  The FASI-G Program, administered by the Defense Supply Center Columbus, was created to provide superior logistics, supply chain management services, and to improve customer services in supporting the military’s land-based vehicle fleets. Under the initiative, SupplyCore handles not only acquisition and delivery of parts, but also forecasting and inventory management to help keep the Defense Department’s tanks, trucks and bulldozers rolling.
   In addition to the Fleet Automotive Support Initiative, SupplyCore maintains a sound supply chain of tactical vehicle spares manufacturers and stocking distributors. Utilizing these supply chain partnerships, SupplyCore provides rapid delivery of tactical vehicle spares in support of reset and recapitalization efforts worldwide.
   Major platforms supported by SupplyCore are the M1070 HETS, M1A1 Abrams Tank, M-113 Personnel Carrier, HEMTT, M88A2 Hercules, M9 ACE, RG-31, and the Buffalo and Cougar Mine Protected Clearance Vehicles.

As the Client Support Representative for Misawa Air Force Base, Kaori is co-located with the 35th Civil Engineering Squadron where she fulfills customers' MRO requirements.  Her hard work and resolve are key attributes that have allowed SupplyCore to provide a high level of service to Misawa 35th CES, leading to sustained business returns year after year.  Kaori’s superior work and dedication are not only recognized by her fellow associates, but has been noted by her customers.

Anna Parnello
Anna wears many hats at SupplyCore.  She ensures we are able to offer the best benefit package at the lowest cost to our associates, ensures we are in compliance with State and Federal requirements, oversees many company programs and keeps us informed.  While juggling all of this, she still finds time to create new programs like the Career CoreNer, an integrated tool that brought together several separate and distinct processes into one system.  Developing an entire system is a daunting task for a team of HR people, but Anna conceived and developed this concept on her own while still maintaining her regular duties.

Chris Benham
Chris has done an extraordinary job developing and implementing a new SupplyCore interface used by SupplyCore Associates worldwide which helps them to be more efficient in their daily activities by categorizing and prioritizing each associate’s workload in one interface.  This has been a challenging project as it is new and undefined.  Chris has gone the extra mile in working extra hours and also in meeting with associates and managers gathering information so he can fully understand the needs of the end user. Chris handled this challenge with professionalism and exemplary technical achievement.
