skip: Benefit from our comprehensive logistics expertise
Our Logistics Services department will advise you on the development of cross-carrier and carrier-neutral logistics solutions with the best possible cost-benefit ratio.

In view of our special rail expertise, we are most frequently called on when it is a matter of rail-focused solutions, and when there are numerous technical, organizational or physical obstacles that need to be done away with before a project can be implemented.

Railion's Logistics Services can give you professional support in the following areas amongst others:

  • Analysis and optimization of transport operations
  • Location analysis and optimization
  • Analysis and optimization of business processes
  • Pan-European transport and warehousing logistics
  • Procurement, distribution and plant logistics
  • Development of cross-carrier logistics solutions with a focus on rail

Our expertise is your competitive advantage

Railion's Logistics Services can advise you when it is a matter of the cross-carrier optimization of your logistics operations. Let us discuss with you the market situation in your industry, your positioning on the market and the trends of the future, and help you draw conclusions for the development of your logistics.

It goes without saying that we will also support you in the implementation of the solutions that we have worked out in partnership with you. For you this means reduced complexity, enabling you to concentrate on the essential, while for your customers it means optimized service on attractive conditions.

Well-grounded analysis provides the basis for information

We can carry out location analysis for you, examining the number and position of your warehouses, the logistics infrastructure of depots and production sites, the equipment used, the organizational regulations and processes, the physical flow of goods and the flow of information and communications - in short, the entire supply chain. This will be backed up with a quantity structure and listing of the process costs. The scope of the analysis and level of detail will be in keeping with your requirements. We will also be happy to conduct a preliminary study for you in the first instance. This will generally suggest initial optimization approaches and point out major themes.

Intelligent concepts mean better logistics

As your customers require more of you all the time, while there are increasing restrictions on freight transport by road and transport costs continue to rise in the long term, the time is ripe for alternative logistics solutions that combine the strengths of the different carriers while deliberately getting around their weaknesses. We will develop customized logistics solutions for you that improve service and boost efficiency, that are both safer and more environmentally friendly - for example, by helping you to reduce warehousing steps and stock in hand while optimizing delivery times and reliability, shifting your modal split towards rail and simplifying your processes generally.     

Calculation of profitability forms a basis for decision

New solutions not only need to be better - they must also be economically viable. So we underpin our proposed solutions with the costs that are to be anticipated, making it possible for you to compare the solution with the current situation. Our calculations will take into account data derived from our analysis of the present state of things, values based on our own experience, acknowledged benchmarks and detailed statistics. On request, our contact person in Sales will draw up a detailed and binding offer for you.

Support in the realization based on project management

When all the facts and figures are on the table, it is generally easy to come to a decision. It is even easier when you can be confident that you are not on your own when implementing a new solution. Railion's Logistics Services therefore offers you operational support as well for the realization of your logistics solutions, and will be happy to take responsibility for the professional management of your project.
