General Onboarding See Employee Manual

Injury on the Job Your safety is our #1 priority and nothing else matters more. Please make sure any and all ideas regarding bettering safety are communicated to management either face to face or through any of our slack channels. Even though we have safety policies that everybody needs to follow, we understand that accidents have a chance of happening. If an employee gets injured at Borrow or at a venue, these are the steps we need to follow: 1) The non-injured person needs to ask the injured person and/or assess the degree of injury. a. If it’s an emergency situation (broken bone, head injury, unconsciousness, etc.) immediately call 911. b. If it’s a non-emergency situation, go to step #2 2) Be sure to secure any equipment / inventory causing the injury and any other equipment that can lead to a secondary injury. Limit any non-Borrow individuals to the area. 3) Call your supervisor (Team Development Manager, Logistics & Product manager, CEO) and explain the situation. Will discuss and plan out the next steps. 4) Once injured person is safe and the situation calms down, complete the Accident / Injury Form.

3


- It’s important that this form gets filled out while everything is still fresh.

These details will help assess the injury, how it happened and steps we can take to prevent something like this from happening again.

5) Management will establish a return-to-work program with the injured individual. If the employee is cleared to work but is still in the recovery process, management and the employee will review / modify their job responsibilities for the short-term until he/she is fully recovered. 6) All employees + management will meet to discuss what happened and how we could prevent an accident like this from happening again. 7) Manager will then electronically file the report under [Employee] HR File as well as in the “Accident / Injury Report” project along with a coordinating note speaking to the Manager’s Action. a. Note title “Date, Name, Short Description”

Attendance and Punctuality A. Absenteeism and tardiness place an unfair burden on the clients, your coworkers, and the organization. B. To maintain our high standards of guest service and mutual employee support, we expect you to be reliable and punctual in reporting for work as scheduled. C. Your attendance record is one measure used in evaluating your overall performance. Management reserves the right to review all cases on their merit and to make exceptions to these guidelines as warranted by the individual situation. A. Questionable absences will be investigated B. Any employee found to have abused the assistance of a manager in this regard or falsified a claim of illness or injury, and/or falsified proof to justify sick leave will be subject to disciplinary action up to and including termination The following guidelines will be used in determining disciplinary action for poor attendance. TARDIES •

Tardy between 6 and 30 minutes after the start of the scheduled shift will earn (1 point.)

Tardy between 31 and 60 minutes after the start of the scheduled shift will earn (2 points.)

Tardy between 61 and 120 minutes after the start of the scheduled shift will earn (3 points.)

If more than 5 tardies occur within the 5 minute marker points will be assigned per management discretion.

4


Any employee that does not call the manager on duty or show within 121 minutes after the start of their scheduled shift will be considered a “No Call, No Show” and will result in termination regardless of the amount of points accumulated.

CALL OFFS/ABSENCES •

Employees are required to call Borrow and speak with the T+D Manager (or P+L Manager if T+D manager not present) when reporting off work.

Borrow Curated Furniture + Design will not honor text or WhenIWork messages when reporting off work.

In the event the employee calling off has the shift covered by another employee with approval by management no points will be assigned.

Attendance points will be assigned to the employee calling off if the shift gets covered by management.

CALL OFF POINTS • • •

When an employee calls off more than 12 hours before the start of their scheduled shift and shift is not covered. (4 points) When an employee calls off less than 2 hours before the start of a scheduled shift and up to 120 minutes after the start of the scheduled shift. (5 points) When the employee calls off for a shift on a day deemed as a delivery, pickup or a room rental setup, regardless of when management is contacted. (5 points)

If an employee calls off for two or more consecutive shifts, without having the shifts covered, he or she may be required to furnish physician's verification and a medical release stating the reason for the absence before returning to work. Employees are expected to schedule any non-emergency doctor’s appointments around their work schedules (on days off, before the shift, or at after the end of the shift). DISCIPLINARY RESULT OF ACCUMULATED POINTS Progressive discipline will be issued for absences or tardiness occurring within a rolling 3-month period that “looks back” over the three months preceding the last occurrence to determine how many points have been earned. Steps in the disciplinary process may be skipped due to the amount of points earned: •

A verbal warning will be given to the employee upon earning 3 points.

A written warning will be given to the employee upon earning 5 points.

A final warning will be given to the employee upon earning 7 points. Any additional points following this will lead to termination.

Employees will be terminated with cause upon earning 8 or more points in a rolling 90 day period.

5


Employees earning 15 points in a rolling one-year period are subject to disciplinary action up to and including termination.

EXCUSED ABSENCES / LATES Absences due to any of the following may be considered excused if calling off more than 2 hours prior to the start of the shift. Manager approved absences may be exempt from administration of this policy. Employees will not be paid for sick days. •

Non-FMLA covered sickness or injury of employee or employees’ child under the age of 18 with doctor verification and restriction from work.

Military Leave

Jury Duty

Funeral Leave for immediate family only

Scheduled Admission to Hospital (not applicable to emergencies)

Subpoena to Attend Judicial Hearing

FMLA and other approved leave for the employee’s own medical condition.

Any other leave approved by federal, state, and/or local law.

Please remember that the above progressive discipline is simply a guideline and that depending upon the facts and circumstances involved in any absence or tardy, Borrow LLC, may, in its discretion, immediately institute termination. Nothing set forth above changes the employment at will relationship existing between Borrow LLC and all of its employees that are described in the Introduction to this Manual.

Shift Start Meeting/Morning Routine “why”: lift each other up; focused on team success. These meetings are crucial to team success. Whether it’s planning out the day and getting everyone on the same page or just communicating / briefing on how we can get better, these meetings start the day and dictate how we will tackle the day.

• Everyone settled and ready to go at start time (8:30a). Please arrive early to get

coffee and/ or any other pre-shift necessities. (We’re not asking employees to do any work while off the clock; just to be here and ready to start at the scheduled start time)

• Please check your job role before meeting and that you are in proper uniform • Every shift begins with a meeting to review the day forward and will be held near the main warehouse tablet.

• Generally the TDM, trainer(s), or other management will lead shift start. 6


• If an individual shows up late or not in uniform contact Team Development Manager ASAP via text.

Borrow Builds / Upholstery “Shop Rental” / Van Rental 7


A. All employees after 90 days will be eligible for the employee “Builds / Upholsters” rental program which allows employees to rent out different areas of our workshops to complete personal projects. B. To reserve the Borrow Builds / Upholstery Workshop, Spray Area or Upholstery room the employee contacts FOH to create a Confirmed Space Rental Invoice. A. $1 Paid Fee B. Contract to be signed prior to rental. C. Pre+ Checklist to be completed prior to rental by management. D. Post Rental Checklist to be competed immediately after space rental by lessee. E.

Saturday - Sunday after 7am. C. Rental can not occur during regular shop hours or concurrently with any scheduled shifts. D. Only the lessee may be present during rental. E. Please see contract for additional rules and agreements.

Efficiencies Found “why” : to develop more efficient systems that help to achieve Borrow’s SMART goals. A. When an efficiency is found within a BOH procedure, send slack. A. “Efficiency Found: Corral 3 Order 4445” consolidated 2 carts. B. Will be tracked by TD Manager and will affect review + compensations. C. LP Manager will use information to better the truck key development process.

Elevator Protocol A. Our main warehouse is located on the first floor accessible via entrances on Lakeside Ave E. B. Our Showroom space is located on the 4th floor of the same building. C. There is 1 “primary” elevator all employees should use to move inventory between these 2 spaces and it is located directly within the main dock area on Lakeside Ave E. D. This elevator should always be the default elevator used unless it is designated “out of service” A. If out of service, use 1 of the 2 contingency elevator options available to us. All elevators within the Twist Drill Cleveland complex are shared elevators that access differently parts of each floor E. Our main elevator is manually operated, which requires the operator to physically open and close the outside door and inside gate. A. To be good neighbors we always practice closing both of these elevator doors immediately upon unloading them unless we are returning to the elevator within 1-2 minutes. B. The locations of the contingency elevators will be shared during on-boarding when you are toured through the space by your assigned trainer.

Borrow 4 Square Think Ahead: Talk out a plan with multiple heads, brainstorm what could go right or wrong, and make sure everyone is on the same page with the plan. Go Slow - Rushing through tasks even on very busy days leads to accidents, mistakes, personal and property damage! Inspect - Inventory should always look ‘new’. This policy applies to presentation of staff as well. All staff should be in appropriate dress code for their assignment. Safest Way - Borrow employees should always strive for every action to be the safest choice available for the task being performed, whether its using proper lifting techniques, moving safely through a congested space, following ALL local traf c laws etc. When we are using the safest practices, then our staff and product is guaranteed success!

BOH Timing Requirements A. Borrow BOH employees follow a shared calendar for all tasks assigned on every day. This includes the Install/Strike schedule, pulling orders, corral completion, load, restock, cleaning, repairs etc. B. Each morning you will be assigned a group of tasks to complete throughout the day and the timeline for those tasks will be reviewed with you. Time blocks for any given task are planned out methodically those tasks should be completed within that time block. C. If an emergency occurs that impedes the completion of a given task, use all provided communication channels to inform a member of management that additional time will be required. That time will be reflected and updated on the calendar.

Inspection Process A. Proper inspection of inventory is crucially important to upholding the Borrow standard of excellence for our inventory, vehicles and people. B. The inspection process starts at home with making sure you are in compliance with dress code for your upcoming shift C. All Borrow inventory is to be kept in “New” or “Like new” condition, even for true antique pieces. “New” or “Like new” condition is defined as being retail showroom ready, or direct from manufacturer at all times. D. Employees should have a keen eye at all times looking for imperfections in inventory and reporting them properly through the “Damage Process” so the proper amount of time for cleaning/repair can be scheduled in a timely manner. E. Inspection should be carried out specifically during the “pull process”, “installation process” and “strike process” with anything that it not considered “New” or “Like new” being reported immediately through the “Damage Process” outlined later in this packet.

Sub-Rentals Occasionally we require the use of sub-rented items to fulfill orders. These items can range from a variety of dish, tables, linens etc. Subrented items are: A. Clearly marked within the “Fulfillment” section of each order in Good Shuffle. B. All details will be included in this section including: Vendor, Product, Quantity, and notes on when the items will be delivered to Borrow, or if Borrow will be required to pick those items up, as well as the return process for those items. C. All Sub-rentals will be marked clearly on the calendar for the day/method they are being received by Borrow and the day/method in which they are returning to the vendor of origin.

FOH/BOH Checklists A. Daily, Weekly and Monthly Checklists are scheduled to be completed by BOH Staff B. These checklists include a variety of general housekeeping items C.

All Checklists can be found in the Google Drive attached to all Borrow Electronic devices and completed within the scheduled time given for them on any given day. E. The checklists are completed as a Google Form with space to include notes for timing, efficiencies found, completion details etc. F. There are also “Pre-Event Checklists” and Building Checklists” that will be scheduled to be completed prior to any “Borrow As A Venue” reservation and should be completed the same way as the daily/weekly/monthly checklists.

FOH Showroom Organization The Why: Creativity is a core value of Borrow and keeping a beautiful showroom allows us to flex that muscle.

All packages received should be placed immediately in their labeled home. D. If a package arrives that does not have a labeled home, that package should be delivered to its specific addressee (if there is one) or placed in “Inbound for Cleaning” with a question attached to the “Supplies Delivered” posting asking where the item should be taken. As soon as this is determined, BOH Staff should place the item as directed.

Reviews / Growth Conversations

A. Each BOH Staff member will be given a 90-day review from the initial start date to assess where the employee is on their training and development plan, continued training, re-training if necessary, and growth plan B. These conversations will then be re-addressed on a quarterly basis unless a deeper, more intensive development plan is required to help

Proper Client Interactions + Relationships The relationships that Borrow has with its clients is largely what drives our success in everything we do. Borrow has curated deep relationships with many industry-adjacent vendors and clients over the years and keeping those relationships in good standing only serves to promote us positively on a year round basis. A. Borrow Staff is always willing to go above and beyond to meet the needs of our clients, with no ask being too big or too small. B. We are always meeting the requests of our clients and co-vendors to the best of our ability. A. Sometimes these requests can feel like they are too large, or too much for us to be able to handle, and if you are in a situation where you are unsure of a client request you should always make the phone call to management to discuss and create a plan forward that ensures the utmost happiness of our clients.

Clean/Repair Process for Furniture + Decor “why”: selflessness and humility, lift each other up; focused on team success. If we ever notice damage, we must follow our process. We always want to set the next man up for success. If we don’t report damage, the next time that item goes, it will add more work for the guy corralling, loading, and delivering. If we identify damage, we can take care of it with plenty of time to spare. Also, whether you are following protocols or not, mistakes can happen.

E. $$ Spent includes Labor A. Is tracked in Good Shuffle A. Enter in $$ amount and date but no quantity change.

Most Common Mistakes 1) Seeing inventory damage and not reporting it right away. Perhaps you were in the middle of something and told yourself you would remember later but you forgot. Always, stop what you’re doing (aka “Slow Down”), report it using the steps above so this damage does not get forgotten! 2) Assuming the damage or cleanliness is acceptable. We always strive to get the best customer experience and that includes serving them a product that’s as perfect as we can make it. If you are ever unsure if something is acceptable or not, always ask! It may end up being okay but it could be something we can fix / improve before more damage is done to it.

Dish Cleaning Process “why”: Borrow has ventured into tabletop because it allows us to add to our current rental orders with product that is low volume and yields a fantastic return based on its size. It is so important silverware and plate ware get delivered in “NEW” condition. It should appeared it was ordered from the store.

Most Common Mistakes 1) Not calling ahead. If we do not call ahead, this can put the client in an uncomfortable position / not ready for us. Also, certain venues do not have people actually working inside. Often they have to send someone out to unlock the venue. If we don’t call until we get on-site, we run the risk of sitting there for a certain period of time waiting for the person to arrive. 2) Not communicating if you are running late and arriving past the arrival time on calendar. It’s very important that we communicate with FOH and clients to let them know about our status. We want to give the best customer service and never want the customer wondering where we are. Communication is key. 3) NOT COMMUNICATING

Per Diem Rates To be granted for shifts longer than 10 hours and will be out of town. Per diem rates for the continental U.S. are set each year by the General Services Administration (GSA). For fiscal year 2022 (which begins October 1, 2021), the standard rate is $59 for meals and incidentals and $96 for lodging.

Vehicle Training “why”: lift each other up, focused on team success, Good Partners The safer you drive the truck, the safer you are, the safer our product(s) are, and the most likely we’ll complete orders with happy clients. This in turn makes everyone at Borrow look good along with vendors that we frequently work with. Being a smaller company, we strive on these relationships whether they’re clients, vendors or just anybody associated with events that we are a part of. Log Book Accident / Incident Form All Operation Leads must be able to pass a 3 part test before they are allowed to operate a truck without TDM or Trainer. A. Pre-Trip Test: a verbal test where the driver must complete a thorough check of the truck to make sure everything is functioning before you get behind the wheel (this includes checking fluid levels, leaks, tires, brakes, suspenders, gauges, lights, lift-gate and other parts of the truck). Once passed, you will move to the Basic Controls Test. i) Review instructional walkthrough video (multiple times) ii) Perform minimum of 3 pre-trips with an instructor iii) Final Pre-Trip Test • Employee will perform a pre-trip and will be tested by instructor. This will be a “pass or fail” iv) If failed, the employee can redo the test 3 days later v) If passed, employee moves to “part B”

B. Basic Controls Test: evaluates your skill at controlling the truck while backing in / pulling out through different situations given to you. We will be testing your judgement to the truck’s position relative to other objects. Once passed, you will move to the Road Test. The 4 different parts are below:

28


SCORING • Crossing boundaries (encroachments) • Pull-ups • Vehicle exits (looks) • Final position The examiner will score the following: Encroachments: You will be scored with an encroachment error each time any portion of your vehicle touches or crosses over a backing exercise boundary. Each encroachment is scored as a two point error. Pull-ups: When you stop and reverse direction to get a better position, it “may” be scored as a pull-up. You will not be penalized for initial pull-ups. However, each excessive pull-up will count as a one point error. Looks: You are allowed to stop and exit the vehicle to check the position of the rear of your vehicle (look) during each exercise. You are allowed one look for the Straight Line backing exercise and no more than two looks each for the Offset to the Right and Alley Dock exercises. When using a look, you must place the vehicle in neutral, or park if equipped with an automatic transmission and set the parking brake. When exiting and reentering a truck or tractor, you must do so safely by facing the vehicle and maintaining a three point of contact method with the vehicle at all times. When exiting and reentering a bus, maintain a firm grasp on the entryway handrail at all times. If you do not safely secure the vehicle, or if you exit the vehicle in an unsafe manner, you may be disqualified. Final position: It is important that you finish each exercise exactly as the examiner has instructed. If you do not fully place the rear of your vehicle into the final docking boundary or the front and back of your vehicle is not relatively straight as described by the examiner, you will be penalized 10 points and could disqualify on the backing exercises. You must have a passing score of 12 points or less as a combined score for all three backing exercises. If more than 12 points/errors are scored, the test will be stopped and you will not pass the Basic Control Test. A. Straight-Line Backing You will be instructed to back your vehicle in a straight line between two rows of cones without touching or crossing over the exercise course marked by cones. If you encroach on or through any cones the examiner will stop you and you must return back into bounds. Set your parking brake and tap the horn when you have completed the exercise. If the back of your vehicle is not within the final docking boundary, you have not successfully completed the exercise and a position error will be scored.

29


B. Offset Backing (to the right) You will drive straight forward and then back your vehicle into the lane to the right, without touching or crossing over the exercise course marked by cones. The examiner will stop you and instruct you to return back into bounds if you encroach on or through any cones. If a pull-up is needed, you must first back so that the entire rear of your vehicle crosses over the exercise’s center boundary line (middle cone between both lanes) before a pull-up is allowed. Set your parking brake and tap the horn when you have completed the exercise. After completing the exercise, your entire vehicle must be relatively straight. If the back of your vehicle is not within the final docking boundary or the front of your vehicle is positioned to the left or right (in front of the row

30


of cones) of the backing lane, you have not successfully completed the exercise and a position error will be scored. See Figure 12-2 at the end of this section, for examples of the center line the vehicle must cross before making a pull-up and where the vehicle should be positioned after completing this exercise.

C. Parallel Parking You may be asked to park in a parallel parking space that is on your right. You are to drive past the entrance to the parallel parking space with your vehicle parallel to the parking area; and back into the space without crossing front, side or rear boundaries marked by cones. You are required to get your entire vehicle completely into the space.

iv) Alley Dock Parking You will be instructed to set your vehicle up at a 90 degree angle and back your vehicle (sight side) into an alley dock. You must put the back of your vehicle inside the final docking boundary. The examiner will stop you and instruct you to return back into bounds if you encroach on or through any cones.

31


After completing this exercise, set your parking brake and tap the horn. Your entire vehicle must be relatively straight. If the back of your vehicle is not within the final docking boundary or the front of your vehicle is positioned to the left or right (in front of the row of cones) of the backing lane, you have not successfully completed the exercise and a position error will be scored. Grounds for Automatic Disqualification You will be automatically disqualified for any of the following: Dangerous action: A. Anytime the examiner has to intervene and stop you from striking any fixed object. B. Applies to other dangerous situations while positioning the vehicle or completing the backing exercises. C. When you fail to put the vehicle in neutral/park and set the vehicle’s parking brake, before exiting the vehicle to perform a “look.” D. Repeated instances of exiting the vehicle in an unsafe manner while performing a “look.”

Accident:

• An accident, even if it’s minor. This includes contact with any fixed object. - Striking exercise boundary cones is not scored as an accident.

Failure to perform: E. When you cannot comprehend or respond to instructions given during any part of the Basic Control Test. F. Applies to the inability to perform any of the backing exercises.

32


Road Test: using the first 2 tests and doing a real life scenario with a Borrow delivery / drop to a venue or personal residence. Starting off the day with a pretrip and heading to the delivery or pickup. If the tester feels that the driver safely operated the vehicle, he or she will have full reigns of the truck without supervision. Please note that this may take a few shifts to complete this portion of the test.

33


Qualified Drivers For employees driving the Borrow truck, he or she must always have a spotter when backing out or in at venues or any tight places. The truck has a box that is 26 feet long and it is way longer than you think when you look through the side mirrors. The truck under NO CIRCUMSTANCES can go under a bridge that is under 13’ 2” high. An employee is to never drive down MLK here in Cleveland. Avoid driving anywhere near MLK Jr. Drive or in the city of Euclid. There are several old bridges that will not be high enough for our truck. If a driver comes to a bridge that doesn’t state the height but looks low, they must put their hazards on and have another team member jump out and be their spotter as they inch to the bridge. If in doubt, turnaround and find another route. If a driver goes under a bridge and damages the truck in doing so, he or she will be responsible along with the team member who is not driving. Each team member needs to ensure Borrow property is the safest hands as possible. Drivers must be aware of other low hanging things other than bridges. Low hanging tree branches and wires are common in residential areas so each driver needs to be aware of not only what’s on the road but what’s above it as well. All drivers are required to turn off the breaker for the appropriate dock door they are parking in at Borrow HQ. The dock doors in our current home base are known to close at times whether or not a vehicle appears to be blocking the signal. To ensure the safety of all Borrow team members, vehicles, and other pedestrians ALL drivers must exit their vehicle immediately upon safely parking and turn the appropriate breaker off. If you are a spotter that is opening a dock door for a fellow driver you must turn off the breaker for the appropriate door as soon as the door is fully open. Any team member that fails to secure a dock door is subject to disciplinary action up to and including termination. Failure to follow these policies can result in serious injury or death to you or to others and is a very serious matter. If you do not follow these rules and are in or cause an accident or damage to Borrow LLC property, you may be subject to disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment.

Borrow Dock Test A. Communicate with driver to confirm dock bay # and spotter truck hand commands B. Spotter should insure dock door of selected bay is completely open and the breaker is switched off C. Driver must use side mirrors, vision, reflective stripping, and spotter to safely back into the dock bay D. Once backed completely into bay, set parking brake. E. This test will be assessed by either trainer or TD manager.

WORKSHOP

Borrow Builds / Upholstery Process “why”: creativity + can do, positive attitude. Borrow is a place where ideas are encouraged no matter what position you hold here. When it comes to Borrow Builds, there are so many projects that can be used for an event and in turn, benefit Borrow. Each project can hold a certain amount of speed bumps so it’s always important to communicate with the team and always look for solutions / efficiencies. A. Creative Submission or Damaged Item submitted via slack. Creative Director either approves for work order or shelves for future or denies. A. Unless Damaged by Borrow than Proceed to B. B. If approved for Work Order CD slacks too FOH to start process. FOH creates a “Project" for the item with appropriate pipeline. A. Project to be created by Ops Director if “Borrow Project” C. Operations + Production Director Creates a Work Order and attaches to the Project with a task for Creative Director to check. A. If this is a “repair” or “maintenance item” or Pre-Approved project no approval needed and skip to step E. D. Submission is approved by Creative Director or Operations + Production Director in which case said person communicates via slack and updates the Insightly Pipeline. A. If not approved Creative Director to delete pipeline. E. Product Development Lead, Build Team Lead, Lead Upholsterer or Operations + Production Director A. Print 2 copies of work order (1 just by itself and the other with time sheet + QC attached) F. A. Put both copies Operations + Production Director’s office G. A. Add to Google Doc H. Operations + Production Director A. Orders all necessary materials and marks off ordered on WO.. B. Once materials are received WO notated on WO. A. All labor is scheduled on Apple calendar and Microsoft To Do two weeks ahead. C. Hangs copy with time sheet and quality check of Work Order on Workshop and/or Upholstery whiteboard D. Moves single sheet work order to “In Progress” on cork board. I.

Build Team Lead / Product Development Lead / Lead Upholsterer A. Follows sketch / plans to the exact dimensions and details desired A. All days / times worked on project along with details of task(s) gets recorded

35


J.

B. If there’s any idea about a change in the sketch whatsoever: A. Stop what you’re doing + submit an updated sketch on Creative Submissions Slack channel — be as detailed as possible B. Wait to hear back on approval or not A. If time sensitive, give Creative Director and/or Operations + Production Director a call B. Move to work needs reassessed on cork board if there is a delay. A. IF STAINING or a certain look in the wood is desired, Approval must be gotten by Creative Director Before moving on — submit pictures via Slack on “Creative Submissions” channel under specific Creative Submission post. A. Once we poly, it is extremely difficult to undo staining. Too much labor, time, and materials will be wasted if we need to make changes B. Once approved, keep the project moving - Again, if time sensitive, give Owner and/or Operations + Production Director a call ii) There should be constant updates communicated with Creative Director + Ops Director between stages of projects (i.e., construction, sanding, staining, painting) • This helps FOH be aware of progress + it will give more eyes on the project just in case something is not completed the right way or if the final look won’t be exactly what we had in mind. It is easier to fix this between stages rather than undoing after we complete it. iii) Once the build is complete + timing is all recorded: a. Ops Director puts work order on Borrow Builds Board “Quality Check” b. Move project to a corral for inspection / quality check a. Borrow builds items to go in Builds Overflow b. Borrow Upholstery to go in Upholstery Overflow

K. Operations + Production Director i) Schedule a task + SLACK message to Creative Director for quality check. L. Creative Director i) Will quality check the piece + decide if it’s approved or if more work needs to be done on it ii) If additional work needs to be done, it’s hung back up on workshop whiteboard with all necessary work that needs to be complete (go to step “G”) iii) If approved, Creative Director will: 1) Update timing, work order (attaching in Insightly), and SLACK • SKIP STEP “J” M. Build Team Lead / Product Development Lead / Lead Upholsterer

36


i) Move upstairs to photo / new inventory area on 4th floor

Work Order Completing A. The Pieces of Parts of a Work Order i) Quality Check Date: 2 weeks prior to delivery date for rentals or retail or equipment needed for such. ii) Quality Check Date: Inside Creative Projects - to be determined based on event and client schedule. • Reference Google Doc iii) Blank Space for Inspire Pic iv) Hour estimates. • Use prior work orders, ask and google time estimates with a wide range. - Best Case: Be Aggressive - Worst Case: Novice timing. v) Labor • Break Down per step / department. • Fill in estimate of hours based on prior work orders or google research. • Standard Labor Rate: $16 vi) Materials • The name of products and where we purchase from. Make sure to include as much info on the material as possible. - Pricing through Amazon or Hardware Store B. Terms of Service: brief description of what we’re doing. C. Description of Project: use dimensions when applicable. D. Blank Space at Bottom E. Include all dimensions / measurements / sketch / All Build / Upholstery Cuts Listed. • If need additional space attach a separate sheet. Most Common Mistakes A. Staining process is rushed.

go with the idea. Money and the “look” are factors when we do the sketch so we must keep this in mind and never rush. Always “SLOW DOWN” and communicate ideas to ensure the team succeeds. C. Moving new project upstairs to photo area before Quality Check. “Inspection” is part of the Borrow Square and it’s important that we follow the process we have in play. There must be a final Quality Check before we move complete Build upstairs. It’s exciting to finish a project but if we move it upstairs and there’s a flaw, we’ll need to bring it back downstairs to correct it. Equipment A. Drill B. Impact Drill C. Pocket Holes Saws D.
