Coordinating deliveries from a broad supply base in order to deliver just-in-time to dozens of different manufacturing lines is very complex. But the efficiencies and cost savings to be gained are tremendous.
For many years across many industries, our practices have reduced inventory requirements and cut costs. These efficiencies have enabled customers to convert inventory space to production capacity, improve accuracy and realize significant savings in transportation.
We also provide reverse logistics, such as returnable container systems, to reduce overall transportation costs and improve processes, helping to continuously improve lean manufacturing techniques.
Managing the inbound flow of materials and the outbound flow of goods is critical to balancing inventory levels and maintaining shipping costs. By combining transportation, warehousing and sequencing, Penske Logistics routinely manages hundreds of suppliers and meets tight delivery windows every day as part of our integrated inbound and outbound supply-chain solutions.
