Case studies

Your new warehouse or plant under one contract

From the first study to a running operation. Logio prepares the project on your data, chooses machines and IT systems for you, manages the construction partner and every supplier, and owns the interface where turnkey projects usually go wrong.

Ten project phases with separate contracts compared with one continuous contract under Logio; phases 3 to 5 delivered by a construction partner under Logio's project management

A new site is ten projects at once

A new warehouse or production site is a chain of ten phases, each with its own suppliers and contracts: requirements, concept, design and permits, construction tender, construction, technology and IT selection, installation, start‑up, handover and maintenance. Companies with an experienced project team can hold that chain together themselves. Most mid‑sized manufacturers and distributors cannot spare the people for 12 months or more, and the gaps between the contracts belong to nobody.

The most expensive gap is the interface between building, technology and IT. The builder delivers the hall to spec, the integrator delivers the line to spec, the software vendor delivers the system to spec, and nobody delivered the operation. Floor loads, heights, power, data interfaces and a ramp‑up that collides with the old site closing all fall between contracts.

What Logio takes on

Project preparation

We measure flows and volumes, write the requirements and compare concept variants on a simulation model before anything is ordered.

Technology and IT first

Machines and systems are specified and tendered early, so the building is designed around them, not the other way round.

Delivery under one plan

A construction partner builds under Logio’s project management; we coordinate technology and IT suppliers and supervise the works.

Start‑up and handover

Commissioning, performance tests, operator training and a maintenance plan.

Split delivery vs. one general contractor

Split delivery

Contracts you sign: One per discipline

Who owns the interfaces: You

Who writes the technical brief: Often the first vendor in the door

Load on your team: High for the whole project

Technology choice: Tied to whoever drafted the concept

Logio as general contractor

Contracts you sign: One

Who owns the interfaces: Logio

Who writes the technical brief: Logio, from your data, before any vendor is chosen

Load on your team: Decisions and approvals

Technology choice: Chosen for you, not tied to any vendor

Who builds the building

We do not pour concrete and we do not run our own assembly crews. Design, permits and construction are done by a construction partner under Logio’s project management. Logio writes their technical brief, coordinates them with the technology and IT suppliers and supervises the works. Depending on the project, Logio signs as the general contractor or works in a consortium with its partners.

When you don’t need us

If you already have an experienced project team and a finished technical specification, a good integrator can deliver to your spec. Logio fits when the specification does not exist yet, or when your people need to keep running the business while the new site is built.

FAQ

For a new automated warehouse, typically 12 to 18 months from feasibility study to go‑live; retrofitting an existing site is usually faster, around 6 to 12 months. A new production plant depends heavily on the technology and permits, so we give a schedule after the preparation phase.

Before you have chosen a site, a builder or a technology vendor. At that point the size and layout of the building can still follow your operation, and those decisions stay with you for the life of the building.

No. A construction partner builds under our project management. We are responsible for the brief, the coordination with technology and IT, and the supervision.

No. We have no machines, racking or software of our own to place in the project. We compare suppliers per project and you see the comparison.

A project preparation phase: requirements, concept, budget, delivery model and schedule. At the end you know what to build, what it will cost and how you want to deliver it.
