Why Use The Logistics Business?

THE LOGISTICS BUSINESS is one of the leading independent, specialist logistics and supply chain consultancies with an enviable portfolio of clients from small to major international organisations. It offers a highly experienced team of practical consultants, with operational backgrounds from engineering projects to retail operations.

Working at all levels from the strategic to the day to day we help clients find new ways of managing the flow of materials through their procurement and distribution networks, warehousing and transport operations. Supply chain re-engineering is a core part of our activities supported by a unique suite of modelling tools. We have considerable experience of warehouse design and are the leading consultancy in warehouse automation. Environmental issues are of growing concern to our clients and we have recently enhanced our services to include environmental transport audits and related activities. Growing in popularity is our Warehouse Performance Management service, which uses Industrial Engineering techniques to reduce cost and increase capacity. Many of our clients have asked us to implement our recommendations using our experienced project management team.

Backing this up are our warehousing and distribution IT consultancy services specifying requirements and helping with procurement and implementation of new systems.

In recent years we have developed our capabilities in construction logistics and have an established software package for managing construction site logistics.
