Lab employees frequently need to
take property off-site for a variety of reasons. They should complete
documentation beforehand, or if that does not happen, as soon as
possible after the property’s removal. A variety of forms
may be used based on the circumstances. The following list identifies
them and suggests potential applications:
- Shipping Document – A “shipper”
is typically used when a commercial carrier is transporting the
material and the property is taken to the Building 69 area for
shipping. It may be returning to the vendor for repair, trade-in,
or shipping to an off-site experiment or laboratory/facility.
This form is available in Stores, (catalog no. 7600-55567) and
can be ordered on-line here.
- Material Pass – This form is used primarily
for taking government property home to perform Lab-related work.
It is signed and approved by the appropriate supervisor, and a
copy of the form is submitted to the property representative for
the Division. Names of property representatives can be found here.
This form is also available in Stores (Catalog no. 7600-67344).
- Property Pass -- Once the Material Pass form
is completed, the property representative may also issue a Property
Pass. This is a small, credit-card-size form that is used for
assets that move back and forth between home, travel, and the
Lab, such as laptop computers.
A few exceptions require neither a Shipping Document nor a Material
Pass. They are for stationary items, including pens and pencils,
work papers and binders, briefcases, pagers, books, and computer
disks.
