Whether your organisation needs to undertake a factory relocation, relocate a warehouse or simply reconfigure an existing warehouse operation or warehouse layout, “A Turn Key Solution” is your supplier of choice.
Having undertaken significant projects in Asia and Australia, our detailed approach in managing your relocation project ensures a quality service is delivered with minimal disruption to your business operation.
What is our approach to managing your warehouse relocation project?
We invest time to understand our client’s requirements by conducting a macro assessment of the site(s) which includes machinery, storage equipment, material’s handling requirements, services, utilities, stock movement, order management, crewing, transportation and special instructions/requirements specific to the business.This assessment forms the baseline for our warehouse improvement project.
What’s involved in developing our planning phase of your warehouse relocation project?
Based on our experience, the planning phase of your relocation is the most critical part of any relocation project. It must be undertaken with the highest attention to detail by methodically following a structured process that incorporates all elements of the macro assessment. The outcome will be a relocation project plan that includes: constraints, critical path, milestones, costing and delivery timeline.
What are the Key aspects of our execution process for your warehouse relocation project?
Failure to plan effectively during the planning phase will have an adverse effect on the overall project, especially during the execution phase. Symptoms include:
- Deadlines tend to slip
- Schedule conflicts occur
- Poor understanding of tasks and requirements
- Resource utilisation is poor
- Frustration levels increase during the tasks
- Costs escalate during the project
As every project will have issues that arise from unforeseen circumstances, it is important to manage the process and address each specifically. Identifying alternatives and making prompt decisions will put the project back on track. Our proactive approach provides our clients with a higher level of confidence during the project as we continuously focus on what is important and work closely with their team to deliver agreed outcomes. Part of our success is a dynamic communication plan which incorporates planning sessions, vendor meetings, and ongoing notification to stakeholders, which reinforces their commitment to the original goal.
