1. ABERTURA ACIONADA POR PAINPOINT

Managing a quarry site in Lagos presents distinct logistical and operational hurdles that directly impact your bottom line. Are you contending with unpredictable equipment delivery timelines that delay project starts by weeks? Are you absorbing the hidden costs of complex logistics, including port congestion, lastmile access on challenging sites, and the risk of damage during multihandler transit? Does the lack of local technical support for commissioned machinery lead to costly downtime while waiting for international specialists? These challenges translate into quantifiable losses: missed project deadlines, inflated operational overheads, and reduced plant availability. The core question for a commercial buyer is this: how do you secure reliable, endtoend delivery and commissioning of heavy machinery to your Lagos quarry site, ensuring your capital investment becomes operational on schedule and within budget?

6. CENÁRIOS DE APLICAÇÃO

Expansão da Pedreira de Granito, Eixo Lekki | Desafio: A quarry needed a new primary jaw crusher delivered from port. The lastmile access involved a narrow village road with weak bridges unsuitable for standard heavy haulage. Traditional hauliers declined the job after survey. Solução: A detailed engineering survey was conducted. The solution involved temporary bridge reinforcement in coordination with local authorities and the use of remotecontrolled modular trailers (SPMT) for superior maneuverability in tight spaces near the quarry site in Lagos. Resultados: Crusher delivered intact within the planned window despite complex access. Zero community disruption complaints. Project commissioning delayed by only two days versus an initial estimated threeweek delay.

Cement Plant Conveyor System Upgrade, Ewekoro Corridor| Desafio: A plant required six new overland conveyor sections delivered justintime to minimize production interference. The challenge was precise sequencing from port to avoid onsite congestion at their constrained facility.Solution: Implementation of a staged delivery program using a dedicated fleet yard as a buffer storage location near the quarry site in Lagos.Each section was dispatched only upon confirmed readiness for installation.Solution:A staged delivery program using secure buffer storage near the site.Each section was dispatched upon confirmed installation readiness.Reverse logistics were planned simultaneously for old components.Reverse logistics were planned simultaneously for old components.| Resultados:| Resultados:Resultados: Achieved zero onsite storage congestion.Resultados: Achieved zero onsite storage congestion.Resultados: Achieved zero onsite storage congestion.Resultados: Achieved zero onsite storage congestion.Resultados: Achieved zero onsite storage congestion.Resultados: Achieved zero onsite storage congestion.Resultados: Achieved zero onsite storage congestion.Resultados: Achieved zero onsite storage congestion.Resultados: Achieved zero onsite storage congestion.Resultados: Achieved zero onsite storage congestion.95% adherence to the hourly delivery schedule, enabling the maintenance team to proceed without stoppages.
