Logistech provides a range of services
designed to address supply chain issues. We can help to develop
logistics strategy, examine tactical issues such as
transport
resources or give advice on operational issues such as
performance improvement. We take a scientific approach,
quantifying the different options that we evaluate. We often
provide the technical skills and capability to support our
clients' internal processes.
We provide these services to leading retailers, distributors,
manufacturers and logistics companies. We also work with other
consultants on collaborative projects, providing the supply
chain modelling capability.

Logistech can provide
strategic advice on the location of production and
distribution facilities and how these will need to
change to meet future plans. We can determine the
products handled by sites and the market they can serve
most economically.
Typical questions that we address are:
- how many production, distribution and cross-dock centres
should I have and where should they be?
- how should I change my logistics network to respond to
changes in market, competitor or supplier conditions?
- how and where should products be sourced, manufactured,
assembled and stored?
- what are the CO2 emissions from my supply chain
and how can I reduce them?
Modelling can be undertaken at a simplified level to
obtain an indication of the best strategy quickly.
Alternatively, complex models can be constructed of
global supply chains at product level, using
sophisticated cost models.

Logistech can carry out
detailed transport modelling, either as part of a strategic
review or as a free standing project. Typical questions would
be:
- what is the impact on my vehicle fleet of changing my
delivery frequencies?
- how many vehicles do I need for my base level of activity and
how many to cover the peak?
- what is the cost of serving particular customers, geographic
areas or delivery sizes?
- what carriers should I use, for what consignments, at which
despatch locations?

Logistech can provide advice on
performance improvements and operational methods.
Typical questions that we address
are:
- can we improve our warehouse
operations and improve efficiency and/or capacity?
- do we follow best practice
working methods?
- should we contract out our
distribution operations?
The advice we provide could range from a brief survey of
operations highlighting areas for improvement to a detailed study and
simulation of warehouse layout and operating methods. Where appropriate
we can use sophisticated computer programs for activity based costing,
modelling and simulation.
