Core competence: Contract logistics

Successful outsourcing with Dachser.

Apart from the handling of transport operations, an increasing number of companies these days are also entrusting all their internal logistics processes to external service providers. It makes sense. Intelligent logistics management is a key factor of success – especially in times of crisis. How companies are improving their competitive edge with contract logistics and why Dachser is the right partner in this field:

Contract logistics is gaining increasing importance for industrial and retail companies alike. Above all in times of financial crisis and global recession, companies are looking to lower costs and concentrate on their core competences, such as production. In most cases these do not include logistics, with the result that companies are increasingly outsourcing logistics services to external providers. This not only brings savings in terms of time. At the same time, costs become more plannable and more transparent, and complexity is reduced.

Dachser precisely analyzes its customers’ requirements and uses this information to develop tailor-made logistics solutions along the entire supply chain. Customers can flexibly decide which processes they wish to outsource depending on their individual needs: from transport, warehousing and value-added services modules, Dachser creates customized logistics packages while at the same time offering fair and competitive rates. The supplementary services are not restricted to core logistics competences. In addition to quality controls, assembly, repairs or packaging, Dachser for example also handles returns and claims management, labelling, display building and much more besides.

When it comes to realizing projects, Dachser places great importance on active logistics consulting. Individually composed teams made up of Dachser specialists and members of the customer’s staff ensure smooth implementation, high process quality and continuous optimization of the contract logistics solution.

The global Dachser network, competent staff and clever IT solutions are the foundation stone for an optimum combination of the various service modules.
