On-site warehouse reduces order fulfilment time to 30 minutes

For many years, DSV operated a vendor-managed warehouse for a Hungarian global contract manufacturer of PCs and servers for major technology firms. Four to six 24-ton transit trucks made daily deliveries from a central warehouse in Budapest to the manufacturer’s base 80 kilometers away. The warehouse has a 24/7 crew, yet still needed overtime and extra shifts to load the mixed-cargo onto the trucks. Delayed loadings and traffic slow-downs plagued the operation. DSV and our customer jointly invested in an on-site warehouse and stationed the DSV support team there. Now DSV can fulfil scheduled orders within three hours and urgent orders within only 30 minutes.
