What does being a “complete intralogistics solutions provider” actually mean?
A complete intralogistics solutions provider takes responsibility for how goods move, are stored and are managed inside your site, from the first survey to the daily running of every truck, rack and system, so you are not left to join the pieces together yourself.
What is Intralogistics?
Intralogistics is everything that moves, stores and manages goods inside your facility: the trucks, the racking, the automation, the software and the people who keep it all running safely.
Get your intralogistics set up right and your warehouse runs faster, more safely and more efficiently. Get it wrong and you feel it in bottlenecks, damaged stock and spiralling costs.
How our service works:
We walk the whole route with you, taking the time to understand how your warehouse really operates. Here’s how the process works and what’s involved in getting the right solutions for your operation.
1. Understand your Operation
Everything starts with analysis and consultation. A warehouse consultation looks at how goods flow through your site, where time and space are being lost, and what the best next steps should be. The recommendation comes from your workflow.
2. The Right Trucks
From counterbalance trucks to specialist reach and very narrow aisle (VNA) trucks, the fleet is matched to your loads, aisles and shift patterns. Power is part of that choice too, including whether lithium-ion or lead-acid batteries suit how you work.
3. Whether to Automate
The aim is not to automate everything. It is to find the right balance for your needs between automatic and manual handling, so you gain accuracy and efficiency without losing flexibility.
4. Store More in Every Square Metre
Racking and storage systems are designed around your stock profile and how your operation flows. For a completely new solution, the racking layout is usually decided first, because it sets the aisle widths and heights that the trucks then have to work within. In an existing site, it works the other way round, the trucks and building you already have shape what racking will fit.
5. Connect Software and Data
Software ties the pieces together and shows you what is really happening throughout your operation. How trucks and systems are being used, and where the bottlenecks are. With our specialist software, FleetController, you can watch your operation in real time to understand exactly what happens on the warehouse floor at any time.
6. Life Cycle Services
Planned maintenance and life cycle services keep the whole operation running. Ensuring you follow a regular maintenance, and service schedule ensures your warehouse uptime stays as high as possible.
7. Train Confident, Safe Operators
Equipment is only as safe and productive as the people using it. .
We can offer tailored on-site training based on your fleet. Whether you only have one truck type, or a range of different vehicles, we can ensure your operators are working as safely and effectively as possible.
Take Control of your Warehouse Intralogistics
Most warehouses don’t struggle because of one big problem. They struggle because of the gaps and harmony between the trucks, the racking, the automation, the software and the people.
Taking control starts with understanding how your site really operates.
