Challenge

Legrand faced several logistical challenges managing the delivery of their cable management systems. They needed to efficiently transport raw materials to their manufacturing facilities and distribute the finished products to their national distribution centre.

Additionally, delivering out-of-gauge lengths of up to 6 metres to various electrical distributors and construction sites nationwide requires a specialised and reliable delivery service.

Real-time tracking and proof of delivery were essential for maintaining transparency and accountability. Meeting stringent delivery timelines and ensuring high performance were also critical to avoid any disruptions in their supply chain.

Solution

• To address these challenges, we implemented a comprehensive logistics solution that included the following services:
• Feeding the National Distribution Centre: we ensured the efficient transportation of manufactured products from Legrand’s two manufacturing facilities to their national distribution centre.
• Delivering Raw Materials: we managed the delivery of raw materials to Legrand’s manufacturing facilities, ensuring a steady supply chain.
• Online Order Entry: we streamlined the order processing with an online order entry system, facilitating efficient management of consignments.
• Next-Day Delivery Service: we provided a nationwide next-day delivery service for out-of-gauge lengths to electrical distributors and construction sites, meeting the specific needs of Legrand’s customers.
• Fully Tracked Consignments: With online Proof of Delivery (POD) and live tracking, we offer complete transparency and real-time updates on consignments.
• Performance Monitoring: Weekly performance reports are provided to Legrand, ensuring continuous improvement and accountability.
