Rountable - Construction Supply Chain and Logistics

 

The Luxembourg Centre for Logistics and Supply Chain Management at the University of Luxembourg and the Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST) are pleased to invite you to the Roundtable: Construction Supply Chain and Logistics, with the presence of the expert Mr. Alex Giorgetti (Félix Giorgetti SARL).  This event will take place on 09 March 2023 from 16.00-18.00 at the University of Luxembourg - Kirchberg Campus (Block B, Room D17 6, rue Richard Coudenhove-Kalergi, L-1359 Luxembourg).

Construction is an important sector of the economy contributing 6% to the local GDP while employing about 50,000 direct jobs. Improvements to this sector can have far reaching consequences.

In this roundtable we will explore the highly fragmented supply chains of this sector which are characterized as convergent and temporary while following a make-to-order process. These aspects result with challenging logistical arrangements. How can these challenges be addressed?

A project carried out by LIST will share insights into the management of flows of construction goods within cities. A different approach to last mile logistics will be shared by Felix Giorgetti following a successful pilot whichinvolved pre-packaging of materials making them available on site ready for disposal in the morning.
