The contractor’s inventory arrived with three blank spaces where the destination should have been.
Nora placed it beside the preservation order and the power assessment. The list identified equipment in the damaged archive room, including two server cabinets and several portable storage units. It did not say which items had already been packed, which would be moved first or where any backup was kept.
“It’s an inventory of categories,” Kellan said. “Not an inventory of equipment.”
The contractor’s representative, Lorne Pritchard, appeared on the inquiry room’s screen. He said the company was still verifying serial numbers. Staff had been instructed to prepare equipment for loading before a possible shutdown, but he could not confirm that every item on the list was still in the archive room.
“Who gave the loading order?” Nora asked.
“Operations, after the power assessment.”
“Please provide the written order and the names of everyone who has entered the room since the disturbance.”
“We’re gathering those records.”
