Aftermarket V Manufacturing - Which is the most challenging automotive logistics?

1st January 2011

Whether you are in aftermarket or manufacturing logistics there is no environment more demanding than the automotive sector.

Automotive manufacturing is pressured but everything is typically on a single site, unboxed and requested in a predictable flow in relation to the production line. The greatest challenges of aftermarket logistics are the different stakeholders within the supply chain coupled with a largely unpredictable demand.

With every product boxed and the liability for goods received passed from supplier to Rudolph and Hellmann upon delivery (and with individual units costs varying from pence to hundreds possibly even a over a thousand pounds), our processes need to be slick and accurate.

With over 2,000 lines per week, and many items being delivered and despatched the same day, the pressure of picking automotive components for main dealers is every bit as demanding as automotive manufacturing.
