From manufacturer to installation
Project logistics – exceeding the standard
Custom solutions and tailor-made approaches are essential when it comes to project shipments. This is where the experience and know-how of our project logistics teams are called into action. Tight deadlines and responsibility for massive budgets are part of the daily routine. Whether transporting large plants or particularly heavy or oversized components, which we accompany and monitor from the manufacturer to assembly, it is critical in high-pressure situations to develop solutions quickly to keep often tight schedules on track.
Down Under: “We’re passionate about our customers!”
Project logistics requires a high degree of commitment and flexibility. Bronwyn Wassell, Branch Manager overseeing project logistics at Logwin in Perth, Australia, embodies both qualities. From the start of planning, she sits at the customer’s table. “We see ourselves as part of the customer and maintain very close ties. This means there is mutual trust and comprehensive communication,” says Wassell. Good planning is key. Standard solutions are one thing, but the real challenge is anticipating delays and difficulties that often arise during transport and solving problems quickly and reliably. “For a client in the chemical and agricultural sector, we had to manage time-critical supplies from the USA, Europe, and India for a new production facility. Thanks to our global network, we could respond very quickly to issues such as shipping delays and incorrect documentation. Short-notice charter flights often save our customers from high penalties or production stoppages that could result from delays.”
Full Commitment in Chile
The Logwin team in Chile, under the leadership of Country Director Eduardo Vergara, also delivers top performance when it comes to project shipments. From Santiago, the team has managed global project business for Logwin customers for many years. Long-term client relationships are a testament to this success. “Some of our customers have relied on our services for decades when it comes to project shipments. Timely delivery, planning the most efficient and safest transport solutions, and a transparent, open partnership make the difference,” says Vergara. Recently, the team successfully coordinated the delivery of machines and equipment components for the expansion of a new production facility for a major cellulose manufacturer, with supplies coming from Germany, Italy, China, Vietnam, and Canada — all delivered on schedule.
