Trend that has been accentuated in the logistic market, the practice of taking on totally or partially the customer’s assets – the called In-House Logistics – is an interesting modality both for industries and retail chains.

AGM may take on parts or the whole of the warehouse, distribution centers and customers’ flees operation, with own staff or not. Therefore, the contracting company does not need to discard its assets and may concentrate in its core business, not worring about issues such as equipment maintenance and storage structures, operators’ training or machinery depreciation, which are not part of its core business. And the best, it replaces fixed and passive labor costs by variable costs.

The In-House Logistics management allows to the contracting company to have all of its needs of transport and load movement analyzed by experts in integrated logistics, bringing a new vision on its difficulties; in case the in-house operation has seasonality, it is AGM that is liable to providing employees, keeping them permanently trained in order to meet the operations requirements.

The logistic operation outsourcing is a powerful tool to target the total control of operations. Through the In-House Logistic, companies acquire a qualified growth in their core business, once AGM has the liability to redesign and implement the customers’ logistic matrixes.

In the In-House operations AGM uses the same technology employed in its own warehouses, using an advanced WMS that speeds up and rationalizes operations, reducing costs and mistake events.

As in all of its integrated logistic operations, AGM implements, also in the In-House logistics, its safety proceedings, with:

• TV internal circuits;
• Encoded and monitored alarms;
• Armed security;
• Reception proceedings;
• Fire Brigade
