Resilience in the Supply Chain

---

Technology that grows with you, adding networked intelligence and data integration to give you complete visibility and control as your operations become more complex - without straining your current resources.

Efficient planning and resource allocation enables companies to use resources effectively. Companies with a resilient supply chain can respond more quickly to market changes and guarantee uninterrupted service to their customers – even in the face of disruptions to certain parts of their supply chain. 

Identifying and qualifying regional partners can be an important step in making supply chains resilient. We work alongside our clients to assess the availability of suitable suppliers within a defined radius, as part of reshoring and nearshoring initiatives. Moreover, we also provide support in approaching them, negotiating with them and integrating them into the supply network. 

The supply chain logistics industry encompasses the planning, execution, and control of the movement and storage of goods, information, and services within a supply chain, from the point of origin to the end consumer. It focuses on the efficient flow of products and materials, ensuring timely delivery and optimal inventory management. This industry is crucial for global trade and business operations, requiring coordination of transportation, warehousing, and other essential processes 

The new decade will see a move within warehouse operations towards the increased adoption of collaborative robots (cobots). These will work alongside employees and assist with heavy lifting and many repetitive tasks. Cobots tasks can include unloading pallets and putting items to stock and quality inspection tasks that require the visual processing technology, with which many cobots are equipped with.

Whilst still in an early phase, cobots are becoming smaller and cheaper, making them an attractive investment. The benefits lie in the reduction of operating costs by using them for 24 hours working, increasing the speed of repetitive tasks, flexibility in deployment and releasing humas capital for high value tasks.

We can haelp your company in 3 different ways

• A warehouse  that provides only storage and store management.  It can be used to store anything including liquids, electronic piece parts, large items of capital plant, precious metals, gemstones, packaging, raw materials, and household items.
• A distribution centre  that provides storage but also offers value-added services. Such as completing customer orders and offers more comprehensive transport and distribution facilities. The orders tend to be business to business orders (B2B) often for retail outlets. Distribution centres are holding centres between the manufacturer and the retailer.
• A fulfilment centre , which is like a distribution centre but has developed much more recently from the growth in the online, e-commerce market. It is specifically geared to short term storage to satisfy business to consumer orders (B2C).
