If you can get your hands on the last inspection sheets that should set you in the right direction. What kind of inspection is it going to be? Fire,safety,annual etc?

After managing civil construction for many years, I'll share a great piece of advice that I received early on: When selling a job (doing the final inspections) the feature that sells it the quickest is how much grass is growing behind the curbs.

How does this help you? It's about first impressions. No matter how "right" everything is, the first impression makes the difference between whether you get nitpicked, or just simply inspected.

Great question and a great place to ask it. I can't answer on the warehouse part but a really good friend of mine, SSG Daniel Deiler, is a 92A. He may be able to give you some advice.

Contact Fort Lee and then research the Supply Excellence Award (SEA) winners from 2014-2015. Your higher HQ G4 should have a CIP inspection program which would also stipulate every aspect of SSA operations.
Best of luck.

Your unit will have a Command Insoection Program, with the evaluation critter is should com the regulations and policies associated.

I always found when preparing for a CI of any type it was always wise to dawn a second set of eyes on all aspects.
