ART Kits Replenishment Model

1. Starting 21 July 2021, companies can log in to self-order.
2. The online ordering system will match the email and contact number in the records to verify the
   company placing the order. Orders cannot be placed if there are no records.
3. Orders placed will be verified versus the previous issued quantities and number of staff in the
   records. Orders that do not meet the criteria will be rejected and a new order must be placed.
4. Companies that have consolidated their orders previously will need continue to consolidate their
   orders and order from the self-order page.
5. Changes to ordering format such as deconsolidation and other details will require submission of
   Amendment via the respective Sector Leads (Government agencies).
6. Group companies that have similar POCs and multiple delivery points will draw down from the
   combined quota and manage the requirements of their branches orders at their own discretion.
   Once the quota has exceeded, the order will be rejected.
7. Monthly reports will be provided to the Sector Leads for reconciliation and recovery for fraudulent
   excessive orders.
8. Should a manual submission be required due to system failure or any other requirements,
   companies should complete the amendment form and submit directly to Park and Parcel. Manual
   verification will be done by the vendor.

Proposed Operational Workflow for Supervisor-led Self Swab on D-Day [1/2]

1)    Prior to arrival at the swab site, SafeEntry and temperature taking should be done. Individuals
      with acute respiratory infection should be denied entry and asked to see a doctor
      immediately. Individuals with Contraindications will be assessed accordingly (see slide
      “Handling Contraindications”).
2)    Each individual is to be registered upon entry. Please ensure that Safe Management Measures
      (SMMs) are in place during the registration process.
3)    The following items should be pre-placed at each swab station:
     • A small standing mirror (for individuals to administer self-swabs);
     • A box of 70% alcohol wipes for wipe down of the mirror and the environment before and after
       swabbing;
     • A bottle of hand sanitizer; and
     • A Ziploc bag containing 1 swab stick, 1 reaction tube and 1 test device required for ART. The
       ziplock bag with test kits could also be handed to the individual at registration.
4)    Instruction cards / infographics can be displayed at the front of swab site at line of sight to the
      individuals.

                                                                                                 22
Proposed Operational Workflow for Supervisor-led Self Swab on D-Day [2/2]

   Activities at the swab stations
   1)     Individuals to perform hand hygiene before commencing swabbing.
   2)     Individuals to carry out self-swab. After the testing has been done, the swab stick, reaction tube
          and the test device may then be placed into the Ziploc bag (with client ID) and the Ziploc bag
          sealed. The test device should be laid flat and the results may be read in 15- 20 mins. Please
          refer to the manufacturer’s instructions on the exact steps to conduct the test (test kit
          dependent).
   3)     Dispose the Ziploc bag that contains the swab stick, the reaction tube, into bins (double bagged
          and with cover/lid).
   4)     Individuals are to wipe down the swab station (including the table and the mirror) with the 70%
          alcohol wipes and perform hand hygiene before leaving the swab station. Infographics on how
          to perform proper hand hygiene may be laid out. Individual proceeds to work*
   5)     Follow-up actions for AG+ individuals should be taken accordingly.

* Individual can return to work without waiting for the results, and should be contactable for the appropriate workflow when the results are out
