Logistics expansion encompasses many sectors
Since the beginning of 2020, an international logistics giant has been focusing largely on expanding its logistics centers throughout Germany and Europe. The aim is to become less dependent on parcel services and increase in-house parcel delivery - with e-vehicles, among other things. The logistics centers are often located in convenient and logistically optimized locations, but are sometimes difficult to reach by public transport for non-car owners. This is where the collaboration with agt comes in.
Around ten years ago, agt took part in a tender for the Rheinberg site, which agt won thanks to a convincing concept. In recent years, a good and intensive cooperation has developed between agt and our partner, which was steadily expanded at the beginning of 2020. Employees are driven to the sites by agt's bus partners using an established employee shuttle in a three-shift system. With over 60 locations with 3-4 buses each, around 200 buses are on the road every day, transporting around 10,000 people.
The employees are picked up punctually at predetermined hubs and transported along a coordinated route. Before the shift, the number of employees to be transported is communicated to agt via the respective plant so that precise planning can be carried out. From the assembly point, the journey goes directly to the plant location without any further stops, where the previous shift is already waiting to be picked up. A professional team in the control center monitors the shuttle trips, while the current status can always be checked via the back office, which is available 24/7.
