Ensuring delivery capability: Coordinated production, warehousing, and transportation processes
Production logistics & supply
In sync with production- even with a wide variety of product variants
LILA operates production logistics and supply in an operationally integrated manner - from material supply through JIT/JIS sequencing to assembly, directly integrated with processes, IT, and the production cycle.
What does LILA offer in production logistics and supply?
LILA handles operational production logistics and supply directly at or near the plant. This includes material supply, JIT/JIS sequencing, internal logistics processes, and production-related Value Added Services, right through to assembly. The goal is to ensure production supply that is synchronized with production cycles and tailored to demand, with a high degree of transparency and process reliability.
What LILA Offers in Production Logistics & Supply Chain Management
Reducing complexity: An integrated logistics partner instead of many individual solutions
Greater transparency regarding inventory, orders, and material flows
Flexibility in the face of volume fluctuations, product diversity, and market growth
Relieve the burden on internal operations: LILA takes over all operational and administrative tasks
Ongoing process optimization and identification of opportunities for value creation
How LILA Works: Production logistics as an Integrated Business Process
OPERATIONAL IMPLEMENTATION IN ONGOING MANUFACTURING OPERATIONS:
LILA manages production and plant logistics as either an in-house or outsourced solution and integrates directly into existing manufacturing processes.

Proven in these industries
Production logistics & Supply Chain
-
What exactly does LILA handle in terms of production logistics and supply?
LILA handles material supply, internal logistics processes, sequencing (JIT/JIS), and production-related services, including assembly. These services are provided directly at the plant or at external logistics centers.
-
How are logistics integrated with production planning?
The logistics processes are IT-supported and integrated with ERP and production systems. This ensures that demand, sequences, and inventory levels are transparent and manageable.
-
How does LILA handle product variety and model changes?
The logistics processes are modular in design. Kitting, JIS sequencing, and set formation support stable operations even in the face of frequent changes.
-
What role do JIT and JIS play in Line Feeding?
JIT delivers materials at the right time, while JIS also ensures they are delivered in the correct order. Both concepts reduce inventory and ensure a stable production flow.
-
Can LILA also provide Monday services?
Assembly and pre-assembly activities are an integral part of our production-related Value Added Services—quality-assured and closely integrated with Production logistics.
