What is industrial project logistics?
Industrial project logistics is a complex organization of transportation of non-standard, oversized, bulky and heavy cargoes that require an individual approach, detailed planning and specialized transport. This type of logistics is used for the delivery of various equipment, building structures, industrial plants and other complex cargoes that cannot be transported by standard methods.
Project logistics is an important link in the industrial sector, as it provides reliable transportation of objects critical to the operation of enterprises. Thanks to properly organized logistics, delays in deliveries are eliminated, risks of cargo damage are minimized and transportation costs are reduced.
Who may need industrial project logistics?
Industrial project logistics is in demand in a variety of industries including:
- Energy - transportation of turbines, generators, transformers, and power plant equipment;
- Construction - transportation of steel structures, concrete elements, bridge spans, cranes and construction equipment;
- Oil and gas industry - transportation of drilling rigs, compressors, tanks, pipelines;
- Mechanical engineering - transportation of machine tools, production lines, presses, conveyor systems;
- Mining industry - transportation of quarry equipment, crushing plants, excavators;
- Aerospace industry - transportation of aviation and space equipment, rocket components;
- Agriculture - delivery of elevators, silos, combines, tractors, processing complexes.
What kind of cargoes can be transported?
Within the framework of industrial project logistics we organize transportation of:
- oversized and heavy cargo, including industrial equipment;
- construction and road equipment, cranes, bulldozers;
- technological equipment for factories and production complexes;
- drilling and power equipment, including transformers;
- tanks, tank trucks and containers for chemical and food industries;
- elements of bridges, pipelines, steel structures;
- agricultural machinery and modular structures.
Process of organizing industrial project logistics
Industrial project logistics requires a detailed approach and goes through several key stages:
- Project analysis - determining the characteristics of the cargo, calculating transportation parameters, selecting the optimal route, taking into account road restrictions and permits.
- Development of the logistics scheme - selection of transportation, route coordination, risk and cost analysis.
- Obtaining permits - execution of all necessary documents for the transportation of oversized and heavy cargo, taking into account the requirements of international legislation.
- Loading and securing - ensuring safe placement of the cargo using special methods of fixation, preventing its displacement on the way.
- Monitoring and escorting - control of movement, escorting with specialized equipment, providing security if necessary.
- Unloading and installation - coordination of the unloading process, installation of equipment at the site, integration into the production process.
What does industrial project logistics include?
One of the most complex processes in industrial project logistics is the transportation of plants in parts. This process requires careful preparation, engineering calculations and detailed planning of the logistics chain. We provide a full cycle of work:
- engineering planning and logistics strategy development;
- obtaining permits for the transportation of oversized cargo;
- selection of optimal routes, taking into account the specifics of road infrastructure and safety requirements, freight forwarding;
- organization of multimodal transportation (by road, rail, sea and air);
- control over all stages of transportation, minimization of logistic risks;
- cargo insurance and reduction of potential financial losses;
- escort by convoys and special vehicles, if necessary;
- coordination with local authorities and services to organize the route.
