Guidance on flow management

We design our logistics platforms as true manufacturing facilities, and the organisation of our logistics flows as product. Our approach is based on solid expertise in logistics business domains. We are capable of offering optimisation solutions as well as "out-of-the-box" solutions that involve breakthroughs. In a co-construction approach closely linked to your reality, we transform ideas into operational realities. 

Flow engineering involves defining your supply chain plan, sizing the resources needed to optimise your flows, minimising disputes, and reducting costs. We quantify your human resources and equipment requirements, and specific transit means, taking into account your activity fluctuations from the design stage. To achieve this, IDEA mobilises all its talents, designers and operators in designing your supply chain solution. 

By collaborating with you over the long term to validate a common objective, IDEA's Digital Factory leverages all the data from your supply chain to optimise its operation.
