Time Frame: 8 weeks
Client: Cement Producer
Brief: An existing customer of Damac Transporters Limited approached Damac to enquire whether we would be able to quickly set up a new satellite distribution operation in Teeside for a new project. The timescale for the project from initial discussion to ‘go live’ was 12 weeks.
Operation: The project was set up at the client’s own facility and delivered on time and in budget.
The operation consists of 12 dedicated tractor units and tankers at a new operating centre at Teeside. The tractor units were sourced from both the local commercial truck dealer and existing capacity in our own fleet. The tankers were drawn from our own network. Maintenance for the tractor units is provided through a Repair & Maintenance agreement with the local commercial vehicle agent. Tanker maintenance is done both through either our own vehicle maintenance unit (VMU) at Goole or the commercial vehicle agent. The drivers for the vehicles were recruited locally to the new facility and the entire operation is managed from our main operating centre at Goole.
