We were consulted about the relocation of factory equipment, but there were many issues.

[1] Some of the equipment was precision machinery so they wanted to avoid vibration as much as possible.
[2] Other companies’ estimates were rather high.
[3] Shipments could not be made all at once, and having been divided, they required a flexible transportation system matching the amount of material at that time.
[4] When delivering, they wanted the order of delivery to be handled flexibly.

... Speaking broadly, we were consulted over the four issues above.

First of all, we visited the customer’s site, confirmed the total quantity and proposed a transportation method (trailers) suitable for the problem.

In this case, we had to be able to use trailers that could cope with vibration when transporting some of the precision equipment. We had to be able to confirm the customer’s requests at the time of shipping and make arrangements matched to those details. It had to be possible to change the order of shipping times at the time of delivery. We prepared solutions for each respective issue.

By summarizing the above and proposing the minimum number of trailers required, we also proposed that cost reductions were possible.

Implementation was determined as we were able to reduce transportation costs considerably from the amount the customer estimated initially. In addition, dedicated trailers were used to transport the precision equipment as we proposed.

At the time of shipment and delivery, we were able to provide transportation with a sense of security through close information sharing in meetings with the customer and responding flexibly to unexpected situations.

By doing so, we were able to complete a transportation project requiring meticulous care successfully.
