Pest and Wildlife ManagementInventory Management4HighField Technician$ implied
A pest control technician cannot complete services to standard because the company consistently fails to supply essential materials (labels, bait stations, replacement devices, PPE) in a timely manner, despite high performance expectations.
Existing inventory management and communication processes are disconnected from field needs; technician reports shortages but management doesn't resolve them and still holds technician accountable.
