What we do

Logistics that work at the same speed as your production lines.

In a factory, every minute of disruption shows up as lost production, higher cost and missed deliveries.

  • Inbound receiving, staging and store management
  • Milk runs and line feeding to assembly & machining lines
  • Returnable packaging, empties handling & kitting
  • Finished goods staging, loading and dispatch coordination
  • On-site logistics teams aligned to your shift patterns & KPIs

How we work

A structured engagement – from study to steady state.

Every factory is unique. We follow a clear methodology to align our in-plant logistics model with your layout, product mix and production plan.

1. Plant study & diagnostics

We map current flows, material families, line-side consumption and constraints such as space, safety and handling requirements.

2. Solution & layout design

Our team designs store layout, line-feeding concepts, tugger routes, packaging standards and staffing plans with clear KPIs.

3. Transition & go-live

We deploy trained on-site teams, SOPs and checklists, ensuring a smooth handover from current processes to the new model without disruption to production.

4. Daily management & improvement

Performance is monitored through dashboards and regular reviews covering material availability, line stoppages, safety and productivity. Improvement actions are tracked and implemented jointly with your team.
