Construction Logistics
Strategic logistics and transportation solutions for the construction industry
Construction logistics involves planning, coordinating, and controlling the transportation and storage of materials and equipment to and from construction project sites. Ensuring that the right equipment and materials are on-site at the right time and in the right quantities is a key focus of construction logistics. Without a carefully coordinated delivery schedule, work grinds to a halt, causing costly setbacks and delays.
At Sheer Logistics, our expert team has an intimate knowledge of the unique characteristics and challenges of construction logistics. We develop fully customized logistics solutions to help you take greater control over your construction supply chain and logistics and reduce costs, increase visibility and create efficiencies.
- The construction industry requires a wide variety of materials, which in turn require a variety of transportation solutions including full truckload, flatbeds, lowboy trailers, rail, and ships. Sheer Logistics maintains an extensive, curated network of high-performing carriers across all modes of transportation. We are experts in the heavy haul transport of oversized or irregularly sized shipments.
- Just-In-Time deliveries are critical to keeping the jobsite humming. With a myriad of suppliers, subcontractors and service providers, the construction supply chain can be complex. The Sheer Logistics team can help you avoid disruptions by seamlessly orchestrating your inbound freight through careful planning, inventory management, and integration using our proprietary SheerExchange middleware.
- Every project and jobsite is both temporary and unique, with jobsites often offering limited on-site material storage. The Sheer Logistics team manages deliveries with precision to utilize the available space efficiently.
