The Problem:
Our client, a leading automotive parts manufacturer, was facing challenges with just-in-time (JIT) supply to a prominent automotive manufacturer in Vadodara, Gujarat, India. The client's plant was located 200+ KM from the plant they were supplying, resulting in delays and inefficiencies in the supply chain. The client needed a solution to set up a warehouse near their end customer to ensure smooth and timely deliveries to meet the production demands of the automotive manufacturer.

The Solution:
To address the challenge, our team conducted a thorough location analysis and identified a suitable site for the client's warehouse near the plant in Vadodara. The site met all the client's requirements, including proximity to the end customers plant, availability of necessary infrastructure, and ease of transportation.

The Result:
The new warehouse near was successfully set up and operational within the planned timeframe of 2 weeks. The operations at the new warehouse resulted in significant operational improvements:
