What is project logistics?
Project logistics is a holistic type of cargo delivery aimed at the implementation of complex and non-standard projects. Most often, project logistics is used when transporting bulky and heavy loads (transformers, metal structures, generators, modular stations, tanks, etc.) using several types of vehicles at once. Each transportation implies the development of an individual and unconventional solution that allows you to carry out your plans. That is why such transportation is considered to be “project”.
The main task of project logistics is a thorough and comprehensive planning of the delivery organization process. Each project transportation begins with a detailed analysis of the subject of transportation (dimensions, weight, availability of special conditions, etc.), selection of the optimal mode of transport and calculation of possible risks. Given the incredible amount of work and possible difficulties, this service includes:
- consulting services;
- budget calculation and planning of project logistics;
- development of the route;
- control of each stage of transportation (loading, unloading), as well as cargo support on the way;
- packaging, consolidation, etc.;
- transport insurance;
- transportation of modular structures, as well as oversized and heavy loads;
- conducting a thorough inspection before shipment;
- detailed cargo inspection;
- registration of accompanying and customs documentation.
Thus, integrated logistics solutions allow not only to develop the optimal route of cargo delivery to the end point, but also to establish effective management of entire supply chains. At the same time, it is important to remember that project logistics requires careful and step-by-step control of each stage of the project.
