Problem: How do delivery logistics work in practice at the building site?
Where are the big problems? How to make building logistics more
effective? Do the site management and the haulers agree about
questions concerning both parties? What is possible to gain by
using better logistics? Is it possible to gain time with better
logistics and by that reducing the costs?
Purpose and aim: The purpose is to discover if there are any disagreements between
the site management and the haulers. If disagreements occur they
will be examined and probable measures based on the problems
will be suggested. Another intention is to bring key ratios
concerning time spent for deliveries forward. One aim is to update
a similar report made in 1972. Another one is to clarify the big
disagreements in order to make both parties aware of them.
Method: We have with questionnaires tried to find out if the site
management and the haulers have any disagreements. To see how
the delivery logistic work we visited five different building sites
and spent two days at each.
Conclusion: - Deliveries stay in average longer at the building site than the site
management and the haulers believe.
- The haulers can save a lot of time if they early notify when they
are going to arrive to the building site and then they did not have
to wait while they are there.
- If the site management had an organised plan concerning
different things should be they could avoid unnecessary costs in
damages.
- If the building sites use a booking system for the machines they
could avoid double booking.
