The entry into systematic intralogistics optimisation
Warehouse planning
Holistic concepts for existing and new warehouse projects
Warehouse planning is holistic and can include different aspects depending on your needs, from the efficient storage of your goods in suitable racking systems, to the transport of goods with suitable industrial trucks, tugger trains and automation solutions, to control using innovative software solutions.
As a result, you receive a holistic warehouse concept for storage, handling, order picking and transport as well as a process description for your material and information flow.
Warehouse consulting
- Warehouse analysis (turnover and inventory analysis)
- Development of different warehouse and transport layouts
- Dimensioning of the warehouse (capacity, stock turnover - and performance)
- Process and layout design
- Transport/material flow concept
- Optional: specification, preparation of tender documents, project implementation
Process optimisation
Your warehouse can do more than you think
After recording the current status of your logistical processes, we identify potential for improvement and evaluate their implementation in practice. In close consultation with you, we create a recommendation for action to optimise the analysed processes and logistical procedures. Analysis and conception are documented in a comprehensible way, the process description is carried out using standardised modelling languages.
Process consulting
- Recording the current state of your logistical processes
- Identification of improvement potentials
- Derivation of suitable measures for implementation
- Concept development and process modelling
- Optional: Requirements catalogue for your IT systems, project implementation
Potential analysis automation
Digitisation for the next level
Automation solutions can be an efficient answer to the growing challenges of digitalisation and to global cost and competitive pressure. But not every level of automation fits every company, not every technology fits every application profile.
Our intralogistics consultancy identifies automation potential in your company and checks the technical and economic feasibility of different automation variants. The analysis identifies obstacles and necessary process adjustments. You receive an individual automation concept and functional specifications as the basis for operational implementation.
Automation consulting
- Determination of automation potentials
- Examination of the technical and economic feasibility of different automation variants
- Automation concept and specification for your automation project
- Optional: Business case development, project implementation
Introduction of routine pull systems
Foundation stone for lean production supply
The use of a tugger train system for internal material supply lays the foundation for lean production. The material is delivered and disposed of according to demand, at high frequency, reliably and with minimal traffic. But each tugger train is an individual solution.
Based on an as-is analysis of the material flow and the logistical framework conditions, we develop your individual tugger train concept. We define the elements of your tugger train system - from tractors and trolleys to routes, timing and control. Finally, we design the ideal tugger train process together with you and, if desired, also show possible automation options.
Tug-of-Way Consultation
- Recording of the actual state
- Possible combinations of route train elements
- Possible applications of tugger trains on site Material flow concept with tugger trains
- Optional: Examination of automation levels, project implementation
Fleet Optimisation
Getting the most out of your fleet
Fleet optimisation aims to make the best use of your current fleet - regardless of whether you use STILL trucks, trucks from other manufacturers or mixed fleets. We advise on the best possible combination of vehicles and fleet utilisation. You will receive a fleet concept tailored to your needs that takes into account all transport goods, processes and systems.
Fleet consulting
- On-site analysis of fleet utilisation
- Manufacturer-independent consulting
- Action plan and fleet concept
- Optional: concept implementation, testing of automation solutions, potential analysis for the use of tugger trains

Our path to your solution
1. Data acquisition.
Outstanding analyses are usually based on a high-quality data set.
The success of a project therefore depends to a large extent on the quality of the planning data available. Data collection is therefore of paramount importance. We conscientiously check your data for completeness and consistency and prepare it for subsequent analysis.
2. Analysis.
To gain logistical insights based on the processed data as a basis for planning, we use techniques such as grouping, sorting, condensing or filtering.
By using graphic methods, we can visualise complex processes and, for example, make material and information flows visible. This allows us to uncover potential for improvement and define logistical requirements for further planning. Our consulting services include fleet analysis, business process modelling and business analysis methods for clustering warehouse items.
3. Optimisation.
Constant changes in the operational area may require an adjustment of existing systems and processes.
Constant changes in the operational area can make it necessary to adapt existing systems and processes.
4. Concept.
Our goal is to minimise your transport, storage and handling costs.
In order to achieve the necessary increase in efficiency of the logistical systems and material flows, we work out various use cases and solution approaches in close consultation with you. We then check all variants for their economic efficiency and work out the advantages and disadvantages. As a result, you receive an optimal and custom-fit concept. Our consulting services include the selection of suitable racking systems, the development of warehouse layouts and the determination of industrial truck requirements.
