4 Benefits to Onsite Logistics in
Industrial Packaging
[ Exclusive SlideShare Guide ]

“Large-scale industrial and
construction projects can bring
many organizational and logistical
challenges. ➜
2

THOSE CHALLENGES INCLUDE:
▰ Getting your designs and specifications
into the hands of the onsite team, and
making sure that those plans are
implemented correctly
▰ Sourcing the right materials and parts and
getting them to the project location by
deadline
▰Managing the flow of parts and materials
as they enter the project work area 3

CHALLENGES (Cont.)
Without a system in place, material
handling could devolve into a free-
for-all.
Fortunately, there’s an alternative
available that can help you manage
your supply chain, ensure accurate
material delivery, and protect your
timeline.
4

CHALLENGES (Cont.)
It’s a solution that we call Onsite Logistics,
and it’s the process of using a third party to
receive your materials at your project location
and then manage their delivery to specific
team members and workstations.
There are four benefits to using Onsite
Logistics to help you and your team with your
large-scale project. ➜

1. QUALITY ASSURANCE
With an Onsite Logistics solution, you have a team specifically focused on
managing material flow. They check the parts and materials in as they arrive,
unpack them and review the materials for defects. If there’s a problem, the Onsite
Logistics team can contact the vendor and immediately start the process of
correcting the issue.
6

1. QUALITY ASSURANCE (Cont.)
After checking for quality, they can direct
the products to the correct work team,
ensuring that all parts are delivered to the
right end user. You can have confidence
that your parts and materials will be
where you need them, when you need
them.
7

2. INCREASED EFFICIENCY
You likely have construction workers,
machinists, engineers, and other skilled
workers on your project. Their time is valuable,
and it needs to be spent doing what they do
best, not sorting through materials and
containers looking for parts.
8

2. INCREASED EFFICIENCY (Cont.)
With an Onsite Logistics solution, your
skilled workers can have the parts they
need delivered directly to their station with
no downtime. They get the parts they
need, when they need them, so they can
focus on completing their task and moving
the project forward.

3. TRANSPARENCY
Imagine jumping on your computer or
tablet and finding missing part with just
a few clicks. Onsite Logistics gives you
that capability. Your parts and
containers are scanned as they enter
your project location and as they move
through each step of your process.
Those scans integrate seamlessly with
your software, so you can find the data
you need in seconds.

4. COST SAVINGS
Yes, there is a cost to having a third party handle your
material flow. However, consider the costs of not
working with a partner:
▰ Quality issues with incoming materials
▰ Ordering replacement parts with a rush delivery
▰Loss of valuable time while sorting through
deliveries and tracking down misplaced items
11

“All of those items may be small
costs individually. But In aggregate,
they can have a major impact on
your budget.
12

4. COST SAVINGS (Cont.)
And then there’s the more damaging cost of
potentially losing a customer’s trust. If your
project or install is for your customer, they’re
counting on you to deliver on budget and on
schedule. If time or money is lost due to
supply chain and material receiving issues,
that’s going to cause disruption in your
customer relationship.
13

“
Regardless of whose fault it is, your
customer is looking to you for
quality, budget, and schedule
assurance. You can deliver those
things by working with a skilled and
experienced partner.
