Logistic Support

Loomis-Technical manages its own fleet of vehicles to move product either between depots, or to the end-user site. These include 7.5 tonne trucks, Transit vans (normal and long wheel-based) and car-derived vans. Where necessary we have access to articulated transport at preferential rates. We employ HGV drivers, so even where we are utilising 17 tonne or articulated vehicles, they would normally be driven by a Loomis-Technical employee.

It is Loomis-Technical policy that when we are installing at an end-user site, the field Engineer responsible for the installation will normally take all the equipment to site in Loomis-Technical owned transport. This avoids the potential problems associated with a third party courier. In particular, we remain responsible for the product through to installation and sign-off, as well as ensuring that equipment is delivered exactly when it is required. The Loomis-Technical Engineer will also remove packaging and any specified legacy equipment from site. The exception to this would be for example, where we are installing several hundred PCs across multiple floors in a large office block and in this case we would normally deliver the equipment and remove legacy, using larger transport.

As part of our logistics operation, we offer an IT relocation service, where for example, the end-user is moving a large office to a new ´green field´ site.

Loomis-Technical also offers product packaging services, for example if we have collated various equipment for a specific site install, all the equipment for that site will be packed together ready for picking and delivery to site.

Finally within logistics support, we offer proof of delivery reporting for every site visited.
