Parts Procurement and Receiving Specialist

Chehalis, United States | Posted on 08/25/2026

The role of the Parts Procurement and Receiving Specialist at the Chehalis branch encompasses the entire parts supply chain, beginning with the technician's request and culminating in the reconciliation of invoices. This position serves as the sole point of accountability for transforming technician demands into actionable purchase orders. The specialist is responsible for expediting these orders through various vendor portals, ensuring that materials are physically received and properly staged, and ultimately reconciling vendor invoices within the Point of Rental system.

This comprehensive oversight is crucial for maintaining an efficient workflow and ensuring that all parts are available when needed.

The availability of parts is a critical factor that directly impacts service throughput and the operational uptime of the rental fleet. Each hour that a unit remains idle due to a lack of necessary parts translates into lost rental revenue and unproductive technician labor. The Parts Procurement and Receiving Specialist plays a pivotal role in mitigating this constraint, as their effectiveness is measured by key performance indicators such as cycle time, fill rate, and the accuracy of financial records, rather than merely the volume of transactions processed.

This focus on efficiency and accountability underscores the importance of the position in driving the overall success of the branch.

As a 100% employee-owned company, the specialist in this role is not only a key player in the procurement process but also a stakeholder in the company's success through participation in the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). This ownership structure fosters a sense of responsibility and commitment to achieving positive outcomes, as the specialist's efforts directly influence the financial health of the organization.

By actively engaging in the essential duties of demand intake, technician support, sourcing, purchasing, and vendor management, the Parts Procurement and Receiving Specialist contributes significantly to the operational excellence and profitability of the Chehalis branch.
