Contract logistics: What is that actually?

The term contract logistics perfectly describes what it is all about: a long-term cooperation between a company and a logistics provider, regulated by a service contract (contract). The contract terms are usually long and usually involve high volumes.

Contract logistics include not only the typical logistics processes such as storage, transshipment, picking or transport but in addition, the customer may also require complex services and individual solutions to problems.

That is why the contract logistics provider also offers additional services such as order processing or shipment tracking. In addition, the customer also receives – depending on requirements – non-logistical services such as assembly work or quality inspections. In order to be able to offer the customer the perfect logistics solution, contract logistics also requires a deep understanding of the respective customer sector – for example, healthcare, industry or retail.

When these components come together, contract logistics provides the supply of services to companies, organizations and private individuals – on many levels: every day, patients in hospitals can be examined by MRI or CT, the right spare part is available at the right time next to the production employee and customers in the retail trade can find exactly the item they have been looking for at the point of sale. All this is contract logistics – for Simon Hegele.

That distinguishes us as a contract logistics service provider

For us at Simon Hegele, a newly signed contract is more than just the start of a business relationship. Our contract logistics creates long-term connections – between customer and service provider, logistics and additional services, individuality and cost-efficiency as well as between experience and innovation.

Customer and contract service provider: We create connections

With a business relationship in the context of contract logistics, you are in safe hands with Simon Hegele and doubly so, because you are contractually well protected. Thanks to the strong bond that characterizes customer relations with us, we become partners and together we take your value chain to a new level.

Additional services and logistics: More value for our customers

We make almost everything possible for our contract logistics customers. We advise you individually which operative services from our logistics spectrum will help you to progress. But more than that, it is the additional services such as the management of your supply chain, or our digitalization or assembly service, that gives you the decisive edge.

Individuality and cost efficiency: We keep the balance

Does individuality have its price? We can reassure you that because you will receive services from us in consulting and optimization for your required processes as well as the perfectly coordinated bundling of individual service modules, Simon Hegele will fit you perfectly as your contract logistics service provider, bringing you the best of both worlds: more individuality, transparency and cost optimization.

Experience and innovation: A successful team

It's the mixture of these things that does it. Even with contract logistics. This is especially the case when experience gained from over 100 years of logistics meets a corporate culture that has firmly established innovative thinking. The result? An optimal combination of grown know-how, innovative ideas and newly developed technologies and other services.

In most cases, we have developed logistics concepts with our partners that inform us about a possible stock shortage before it occurs. This way we can supply directly and reduce waiting times/idle times to a minimum. Supply without downtime.
