What is a site logistics plan?

Planning helps ensure that the right materials are on site every day so that construction crews can work without interruption. Logistical planning also means that materials are stored appropriately, easy to locate, and easy to move. This also speeds up the project through improved efficiency.

​

UCI Knows Effective logistical planning is imperative for any construction project as it can provide massive benefits in efficiency and productivity that significantly reduces the overall cost of the project. There is nothing more frustrating than having a workforce not being able to continue because they are missing or waiting on the arrival of materials. This can have a knock-on effect of holding up other teams involved in the project, yet with some planning, these materials can be delivered together so that each stage of the construction project can continue unhindered. At UCI our Goal is to assess the benefits and savings that can be made by applying modern logistical management within all the construction sectors of your Project.

​

  • UCI-Planning is key to productivity

  • The UCI team has a timeline of project stages planned well in advance, with a full inventory of what materials and tools are going to be required at each stage. Being able to effectively manage the flow of materials from the source to the site allows for several advantages:

  • Significant savings and reduction of waste. Planning allows for materials to be on site every day as needed so that the construction team can work to maximum productivity.

  • On-site logistical planning means that all materials are stored appropriately and are easy to locate. Again, this speeds up the project and improves efficiency.

  • A clean site is a safe site – good logistical planning avoids any clutter and is better organized, with knock-on benefits for health and safety.

  • UCI Controls-Manages Deliveries

  • An essential part of logistical preparation for a construction project is in choosing the most capable and reliable partners to provide the source materials. They need to be thinking along the same wavelength and be capable of following instructions accurately as there is more to this role than loading a truck with the days/weeks’ worth of supplies. The best logistical planners will request that the truck is loaded in a precise order so that the most needed materials are the first to be unloaded, allowing the rest of the construction team to press on with work. A good partner will appreciate this. The importance of construction site consolidation

  • Is especially important during the early fit-out stages of a project and it essentially means that rather than deliveries disrupting site production and worker interaction.

  • It should be clear that effective logistical planning can make the difference between a project being completed early and under budget – or the very opposite. Having an effective system in place to manage every component of the site is essential to cut costs while maintaining productivity is how an effective logistical plan for materials and supplies can make all the difference to a project being a success or failure.
