In addition, customer-specific configurations of the material can also be handled in the warehouses as value-added services. Our philosophy is not only to tackle challenges in this area with a narrow focus on the warehouse itself but also to evaluate and optimize the position of the warehouse in the supply chain environment by a better overall process and IT-Integration.

Many companies struggle whether to outsource their logistics in order to concentrate on core competencies or perform these services inhouse. Others wonder if their logistics service provider is still the right one, as contract logistics, like many other types of business, has a lifecycle, and partners can drift apart. Pearsons Consulting Ltd supports clients in supporting make-or-buy-decisions as well as identifying and contracting the service provider that fits best. Our services include the development of a logistics target vision, make-or-buy analysis, benchmarking, tender management, cutover, and ramp-up respectively exit management and controlling.
Smart logistics/IoT
Internet of Things (IoT) technologies offer new possibilities to control logistics processes in a way never seen before. Logistics elements become data objects that automatically provide information about their status and position, and systems in the background can draw conclusions based on real-time observations as to whether and what kind of action is necessary. This opens the door for self-controlling systems. Based on our technological experience from several pilot applications, we identify the most promising areas of application for our customers and support them in the business case, design, configuration, and integration of IoT solutions.
Based on its deep client intimacy and ability to leverage industry-specific expertise, IP assets as well as extensive know-how in standard business software solutions such as SAP, Salesforce, Microsoft, and many more, Pearsons Consulting Ltd brings to the table the IT expertise that is crucial when selecting, integrating, and improving IT systems.
