Value-Added Services in Logistics and Supply Chain Management



A supplychain management process consists of businesses and individual contributors involved in creating a product, from raw materials to a finished product.

We at AWL understand that value-added services in logistics are a specialised field of its own consisting of shipping, warehousing, courier services and transportation.
Trade companies include themselves in supply chain management to regulate product quality, inventory levels, timing, and expenses.

Supply chain management frequently comprises trade with firms and individual sponsors in other countries, which requires involvement in politics, trade and tariff laws, quality control, and international relationships.  

AWL’s value-added services in logistics vary from simple to complex, permitting a variety of logistics delivery modules that improve customer service while justifying inventory and transportation costs.

Our value-added services in logistics lets you meet the assorted needs of customers while meeting delivery times. Whether it’s a one-time promotional item event or ongoing light assembly and localization requirement, we are ready to customize your inventory to meet the vivid market requirements.

Typically, these services help the customers immensely by eliminating a need to depute a distinct/steadfast workforce to monitor &complete such activities thereby evade/eliminate transportation delays that may arise due to them.

 

Value-added services include:

·     Kitting & final assembly

This is a process of grouping, packing, storing, and transporting exclusively separate items that are related to each other, as one unit.  Kitting is one of the most availed value-added services by auto companies and consumer product companies. All AWL warehouses are well adept at providing kitting services to its customers at a short notice.

·     Labeling

The dawn of technology has made the use of bar codes dominant in all walks of life including the movement of goods across different points. As the name suggests, labeling is a value-added service availed by all customers on a recurrent basis at AWL. Labeling is used while kitting or bulk breaking activity when the original label is deemed ineffective if the goods are intended to be transported further.

 

·         Bulk Breaking

 

The procedure of removing something smaller (in large quantities) from a larger package is termed as bulk breaking. It is one of the most availed services of customer product corporations. Goods that are either imported or made locally are transported to the nearest AWL warehouse. Here, depending on the dispatch requirements, the respective measures are detached from the bulk and further transported.

 

·         Bundling

 

Generally, bundling is considered contradictory to bulk breaking. Again, one of the most sought-after value-added services from AWL, the consumer product companies are regulars to avail of this service.

 


·         Customized Packaging

 

This value-added service is generally availed if any of the above services are used. Due to its different sizes, special packaging needs, need to be devised to achieve optimum costs of logistics.

The Solutions team of AWL is actively involved in all of the above value-added services and works closely with the customers to ensure that the desired effect with the goods is achieved upon reaching its consumption destination.
