Welcome to
viaLog Logistik Beratung GmbH
Distribution strategies intend to rise delivery service, to lower costs and to find an answer to questions like "make or buy".
It is frequently assumed that the costs of storing, handling and transport can be reduced through centralisation. On the other hand, for many industries a distinctive delivery service is crucial. This suggests that a decentralised or an assortment based ABC strategy may be a more suitable solution. viaLog creates individual distribution strategies in three stages:
1. Strategic planning
Targets are identified, strengths and weaknesses assessed, actual logistical costs and accomplishments are discussed and calculated for the foreseeable future.
2. Distribution alternatives
We develop models and compare elements of the distribution:
- Service provider integration (make or buy)
- Number, location and function of the warehouses
- Transport strategies
3. Strategic definition of intentions
The conclusive results of the second stage will be developed into a detailed strategy. Principles and core processes will be defined, investment and economic viability determined and a step-by-step plan for the implementation will be proposed. For all existing warehouses we suggest suitable logistical techniques and develop an ideal layout.
