Operational and Production Logistics

Whether you provide a service with high operational demand on products and consumables or manufacture and need production logistics to keep everything running. We work hand in glove to ensure you keep focused on your core area of expertise.

If your operations are in the UK, we can help you innovate to reduce waste

Optimising your processes to innovate how you do, what you do

Operational or production logistics is the strategic management of the flow of materials and resources within a service facility (e.g. hospitals within an NHS trusts) or production facility (e.g. Complex manufacturing environment). It encompasses all activities related to the movement, storage and handling of materials, from raw materials to finished goods.

The goal of operational logistics is to create a smooth and efficient production process. By optimising material flow, reducing waste and improving productivity, organisations can enhance their competitiveness and profitability. Ensuring that all components and materials are where they need to be, exactly when they are needed.

We become a seamless extension of your organisation and work with you to achieve your goals.

Optimising business efficiency and competitiveness

To ensure the optimal flow of materials throughout the value chain it’s imperative organisations remain agile, adaptive and receptive to change. There are five key areas in the journey towards operational excellence:
• Inbound: The management of goods delivered into a centralised facility, inventory control.
• Value Add: Warehousing, planning, control, consolidation, kitting/value add, monitoring and execution.
• Dynamic Feed: Efficient internal delivery of component elements to the relevant locations.
• Reverse: Integrated reverse flow of packaging from internal locations supporting circular supply chains and contributing to sustainability goals.
• Outbound: Preparation of finished goods or consolidated loads for onward distribution.

The journey towards operational excellence is marked by continuous improvement and relentless technological innovation.
