Much has been done to achieve high standards of Lean within a manufacturing environment, but not so much, however, has been developed to achieve similar standards in the end to end Supply Chain. Lean Thinking has proved to be an effective tool in improving efficiency and reducing costs, it also provides a standard of operation across companies within a group enabling standard performance measures and truly comparable performance.

Within any Supply Chain Strategy, the effectiveness of the constituent operational parts impacts directly on levels of service and cost. Accordingly, it is important to any business that transport, (whether road, rail, sea, air or multi-modal) as well as warehouse operations are appropriately designed to ensure both local tactical efficiency and alignment with the overall strategy. At Click-On Logistics we support business develop innovative transport and warehousing designs within the UK and overseas markets.

For most businesses, their supply chain strategy is critical to their continued development. It is generally acknowledged that supply chain performance impacts on the majority of business’s revenue and cost functions. Obviously it’s dependent on the business, but in many cases supply chain thinking and strategy is low priority: after all compared to some other functions, it’s just not considered a priority.

At whatever level it is applied, strategic or tactical, at Click-On Logistics we believe that benchmarking is a systematic and empirically measurable  approach to the recognition of best practice. The Click-On Logistics benchmarking process involves the identification of current supply chain performance (financial, operational, service) indices and the understanding as to how  operations are done and what targets have been set.

The range of companies and the scope of activities carried out under the headings of Supply Chain or Logistics are extremely diverse. However, at Click-On Logistics our knowledge of the market place and of the participating companies is extensive. We focus not just upon knowing companies’ activities and service capabilities but also their structures, management, life cycle stage and financial indices.

Whatever the degree of change, effective project management is a core requirement for the timely realisation of business objectives and benefits. Conversely, the consequences of poor supply chain project management can impact not just upon the specific project but potentially a whole business. As well as project management skills, Click-On Logistics recognises that time, costs and supply chain sector knowledge are essential components to successful implementation.
