Automation, process digitalisation and fast-paced intralogistics development are now the market standard, while representing one of the greatest challenges the modern logistics sector is facing. We became partner in the conference ‘Investing in logistics – the key decision that builds an advantage. Warehousing 4.0’ and spoke on how to build a competitive advantage through well-judged investments.
Organised by Colian Logistic, a modern provider of integrated logistics solutions, the event brought together experts and professionals who view the contemporary warehousing as a key tool for building a competitive advantage. At the forum, our team was represented by Michał Brzeziński, Marketing Manager, and Marcin Białkowski, Commercial and Development Director, who spoke about our perspective on the role of the general contractor in the logistics transformation process.
Infrastructure ready for Warehousing 4.0
The main focus of the discussion was the operational efficiency achieved through Industry 4.0 solutions. However, it has been frequently emphasised during discussions on the subject, even the most advanced automated storage systems or the automation of intralogistics processes do need buildings designed to bespoke specifications.
At Commercecon, we fully understand that built infrastructure that keeps pace with technology is the cornerstone of modern logistics. Our expert underscored this point clearly in his presentation, that is, ensuring that a facility is precisely tailored to the processes planned to be carried out in it is critical for successful project completion in the warehousing sector.
The BTS formula – the standard in today’s construction
As a general contractor for industrial facilities, we have specialised for many years in the construction of BTS (Build-to-Suit) facilities for leading property developers and both Polish and international companies in the manufacturing, warehousing and logistics sectors.
“It is precisely the construction of bespoke buildings that allows the full potential of automation to be realised. Drawing on years’ experience of working with the logistics sector, we have a thorough understanding of its needs, and our proven expertise and experienced team enable us to flawlessly transform our clients’ visions into a fully-fledged infrastructure,” emphasises Marcin Białkowski.
Market-shaping partnerships
Taking part in the event not only allowed us to share our knowledge and many years of experience, but, first and foremost, was an opportunity for many interesting discussions with our partners. We would like to thank the host Colian Logistic for inviting us to the debate and for their proficient organisation of the event which has now become a highlight on the logistics calendar.
We also appreciate the participation of representatives from the LODZistics cluster. Through our day-to-day collaboration, we are able to make a tangible impact on the development of the Łódź region’s potential, and to implement best practices that are becoming the industry standard in the warehousing sector.
