BLUE FREIGHT (Germany) wins 3 years Contract Logistics nomination

BLUE FREIGHT SERVICE, your PANGEA partner in Germany, has recently won a big nomination for 3 years of Contract Logistics for a multinational company that is manufacturing industry lasers which are used for marking all kind of packaging.

They have been working for this company since 5 years ago and controlled their inbound supply chain from Asia to Germany by consolidating weekly air freight shipments. The current project consisted of setting up a suppliers distribution centre for this customer. Pls. see a video of the project at https://pangea-network.com/video-news-blue-freight-service-germany/

BLUE FREIGHT is in charge of:

• Inbund Logistics from Asia, as weekly air freight consol shipments
• Receiving the cargo at BLUE FREIGHT‘s warehouse from suppliers in Europe and Asia
• FIFO Storing
• Pick-packing and sorting the products into KANBAN bins
• Delivery to customers production line
• Keep the inventory records

The major challenges on this project are the many small construction parts (lenses, screws, cables, bolts, etc.), boxed cargo, and whole pallets, as well as that cargo is very sensitive and high value.

BLUE FREIGHT had to implement a massive IT support in order to keep up with daily reporting requirements for all involved parties (suppliers and customer). As BLUE FREIGHT has been in charge for the inbound logistics already they can now provide supply chain visibility from supplier in Asia until receipt at production through our web system blueTrace

Orders need to be packed same day and delivered into production the next morning while maintaining FIFO. Customer was used to receive their parts between 9 – 11 am whereas production starts working at 5 am. BLUE FREIGHT implemented a “night dock” with customer which means that their drivers deliver the packed materials between 24:00 – 02:00 am, unload by themselves and place materials in the dock so that production can receive goods directly when they start working.

BLUE FREIGHT is holding a 3 years contract for now.
