A Great Example of Complete Logistics Support

It is always important to maintain good communication with each other, both among ourselves and with the client.

The support we provide through Jan van Dam Global Machine Logistics has deepened our partnership with BluePrint Automation over the past five years. Once the machines are ready for delivery to the customer, we take care of the entire logistics process.

We were contacted at an early stage for a project in Northern France, where strict safety requirements were mandated. We prefer to be involved in projects as early as possible, as this allows us to make a difference for our clients by preparing everything in detail.

A large packaging system needed to be delivered to a factory and connected to an existing production line. This requires excellent communication and coordination, as halting production is costly and must be kept as short as possible. The environment also needs to remain clean, so precise work is essential.

For this project, Jan van Dam Machine Transport prepared a complete delivery and installation plan, covering all safety aspects. We involved the plant manager and the client’s safety coordinators in our planning and convinced them that our approach was the best way to swiftly and safely install the machine. Our drivers and technicians, due to their expertise, were also engaged during this phase. Once the client approved the project plan, including the safety and lifting plans, we were ready to execute the transport.

The project began with loading the machines in Woerden. A transport schedule was prepared in advance, so the drivers knew which machine parts were to be loaded into each truck. The machines were transported to France using four trucks.
