Logistics planning and consulting<\/h1>\n

We produce solutions for sustainable and climate-smart planning and use of logistics. The best experts in the field utilize innovative technology and state-of-the-art software in logistics planning.\u00a0We refine logistics processes profitably, sustainably, and responsibly throughout the project’s life cycle.<\/p>\n

The safe, sustainable, and profitable operations of the logistics centre are ensured by brainstorming and doing things together. Comprehensively sustainable processes consider the digitalisation of society, social and economic responsibility, and environmental sustainability.<\/p>\n

Megatrends affect the design of logistics properties. As a result of urbanisation, some of the existing properties will fall under new areas or uses in zoning. The green transition has brought with it increased energy efficiency requirements for logistics, which makes companies pay closer attention to their carbon footprint and carbon neutrality.\u00a0 The development of old logistics properties is also necessary to meet the new environmental requirements.<\/p>\n

New logistics properties and development of intralogistics<\/h2>\n

Our areas of operation include new logistics properties and the development of intralogistics<\/a> in existing properties. We carry out development projects for production logistics as well as various development plans and capability analyses together with our clients.<\/p>\n

The stages of a company’s life cycle also affect the needs for logistics planning. Changes in the company’s operating environment, such as growth, acquisitions, changes in the supply chain, aspects of security of supply, and changing procurement strategies<\/strong>, set their own requirements for logistics properties. The current logistics property may no longer meet future needs. Logistics planning also supports the efficient work of the personnel and provides a comfortable and ergonomic working environment utilising the latest technologies.<\/p>\n

Logistics planning stages<\/h2>\n
Pre-planning<\/a>
\nProject management<\/a><\/p>\n
Implementation<\/a><\/div>\n
\n

The pre-planning phase<\/strong><\/a> is often carried out before a possible investment decision is made and supports the requirements of sustainable financing. Pre-planning will be carried out both for the new logistics centre and applied as part of the development of an existing property.<\/p>\n

At its broadest, you can outsource the entire<\/strong> project<\/strong><\/a> to us, from construction management to site supervision and from permits to procurement. Our expert resources are available as needed, leaving you with only decision-making. We are Finland’s leading project management and construction management<\/a> professional.<\/p>\n

We help our clients take into account the requirements of different logistics technologies for the building services of the property during the implementation phase<\/strong><\/a> with different areas of design. We support the client in the procurement of logistics technologies, for example, by preparing job descriptions and requirement specifications and by participating in negotiations. We know the industry and industry networks. During the commissioning phase, we can also support delivery control and equipment testing.<\/p>\n

Our architects<\/a> help us design aesthetic entities for logistics centres. A logistics centre can also be an impressive landmark and in line with the company’s brand.<\/p>\n

Often, the logistics centre also includes various premises, such as offices, meeting rooms and product showrooms or sales spaces. Our interior architects<\/a> will help you design your spaces.<\/p>\n

Cornerstones of logistics planning<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Improving efficiency and productivity.\u00a0We design the logistics centre in such a way that it enables smooth and efficient workflows and the use of resources.<\/li>\n
  2. Strategic choice of location. Whether new or old, the optimal location is close to important transport routes, customers, and suppliers. The location is analysed from the viewpoints of transport costs and emissions, among other things.<\/li>\n
  3. Flexibility and expandability. We design the operations of the logistics centre flexibly and so that they can be scaled to future needs.<\/li>\n
  4. Green transition and environmental friendliness. Clients emphasise sustainable, responsible, and energy-efficient solutions that reduce carbon footprint and other environmental impacts.<\/li>\n
  5. Technology integration. We utilise the latest technology, such as automated warehousing, enhanced data collection and analytics, as well as robotics.<\/li>\n
  6. When designing the logistics centre, we consider all safety aspects with regard to employees, the products to be stored and the building itself.<\/li>\n
  7. Security of supply. When planning a logistics centre, we focus on shortening delivery times and raising the level of service.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

    Logistics planning from the ideation to the construction site<\/h2>\n

    Logistics planning is a multi-stage process that includes, among other things:<\/p>\n
