Our team has a successful record of performance improvement in the competitive, high volume, low margin Warehousing & DC segment. Some of our work to date is listed below:
Logistics operation of a motor vehicle manufacturer

Aluminium products manufacturer
- Warehouse and cross docking function had been relocated into a purpose built facility but processes and structure were lacking resulting in significant delivery problems. Redesigned warehouse layout and process flow and segregated products by speed of movement, introduced KPIs, defined roles and responsibilities and introduced visual management tools to improve pick accuracy and efficiency. (Robin Power)
Korean vehicle importer
- Recent withdrawal of Daewoo brand from local market necessitated a review of supply chain integration and consolidation opportunities into Parent Company supply network. Consolidated/decommissioned national warehouse and distribution network into Parent Companys existing supply infrastructure and business process. (Vlado Baban)
