Construction Machinery and Logistics Development Complex

In 2014, the construction machinery industry was just like the current climate, and it still had a stock-cold stock. It was still in a state of running low. The current construction machinery industry in China still suffers from huge inventory backlog due to overcapacity, weak core technology makes the competitiveness of high-end equipment not strong, and the decline of the scale of success has hindered the advancement of transformation and upgrading. Various problems cast the sword of Damocles headed by the company. At the moment, in addition to strengthening internal strength and enhancing competitiveness, the development of new sources of revenue and expenditure has also become a guarantee for companies to steadily move through difficulties. And logistics services, if fully utilized, can not only save costs, strengthen core competitiveness, but also become another profit source for construction machinery companies.

The relationship between logistics and construction machinery is different from other industries. The subtle point is that logistics is not only a tool for construction machinery to run through the production and supply chain, and it also has the tools to increase efficiency and reduce costs. It also needs to rely on construction machinery products to achieve material flow and reach the world. There is a complementary relationship between them and a star and moon contrast. When the traditional profit model of construction machinery is challenged and the post-market is in the ascendant, whether it is the demand for circulation of new aircraft sales or services, or the demand for reverse circulation and recirculation such as trade-in replacement, return-replacement, refurbishment, remanufacturing, and auction, etc. The demand is very great.

Construction machinery logistics has its own characteristics. It has the dual attributes of construction machinery industry and logistics industry and belongs to the cross-cutting field. The transportation of construction machinery products that are large in size, heavy in weight, high in construction cost, relatively small in quantity, scattered in the area, and highly demanding for transportation vehicles are easily affected by many factors. The logistics companies serving the Chinese construction machinery market are still relying mainly on storage and transportation as the main profit-making link, and the upstream production and other links are lacking. In addition, some current policies are also one of the bottlenecks restricting the logistics of construction machinery. If there are numerous regulations for large-scale transportation, the domestic standards for the passage of large-scale transportation are not uniform, and the licenses for over-limit transportation in all provinces and cities cannot be used universally, resulting in the dilemma of the passage of this place and fines. Faced with the above problems, it is urgent for engineering machinery logistics to move from decentralized and independent development to integration and intensive development, and from the singularization of services to service diversification, individualization, and specialization to adapt to market changes and customer needs.

However, in the process of deploying logistics strategies, construction machinery companies must be tailored to their own development. Yang Daqing, deputy chief editor of the “Modern Logistics News” once said that logistics is a pair of shoes, and the construction machinery company “how big a foot is to wear big shoes”. Can not think that logistics is the source of third-party profits, they have to follow suit to build logistics companies, the best way is to control some of the core resources in the supply chain, a reasonable outsourcing.

In addition, logistics information and logistics finance play a key role in the development of construction machinery logistics. Logistics informationization can keep track of logistics status from time to time to achieve control over the flow of goods, thereby reducing costs and improving efficiency. In the current low operating state, funds are always scarce for construction machinery SME customers or logistics companies. Logistics companies of construction machinery must form an effective combination with financial capital, and can effectively support corporate financing activities through financial settlement services such as fund settlement and insurance. In the integration of Chinese companies into global integration and the upgrading of domestic industries, the competition in the manufacturing industry is the competition in the logistics supply chain. Whoever can control the logistics chariots at the front end will be able to dominate the market. The Asia Logistics Biennial, Asia's largest global logistics exposition, will be opened in Shanghai on June 17-19, 2014. During the same period, a number of forum activities will be organized around the logistics of construction machinery industry, such as “manufacturing and logistics industry (two "Industry seminar", "Project logistics and major parts transport seminar", "Logistics supply chain information system forum", when a number of senior experts will personally visit the site and construction machinery logistics professionals to discuss the latest hot topics.

The Asian Logistics Biennale, together with the organizer of the bauma China Shanghai BMW Exhibition, is the Munich International Exhibition Group, sharing the professional resources of the construction machinery and logistics industry. The exhibition covers the logistics services, logistics real estate, air cargo, road transport, Port and shipping logistics, logistics equipment, seamlessly connecting the global industrial chain. Since its inception in 2004, it has become an Asian logistics supply chain service event and is expected to attract 800 exhibitors from the world and nearly 25,000 professional visitors. The exhibition area is 50,000 square meters. The relevant person in charge of the Munich International Exhibition Group, organizer of the Asian Logistics Biennial, stated that with the development of construction machinery, price competition has gradually shifted to service competition, and logistics is also the same, providing individualized, efficient, and high-quality products for construction machinery companies. Professional logistics services have become a top priority for the development of logistics companies.

In the early spring when this chill still exists, please allow the author to come to some cold lyrics. Construction machinery and logistics are still like oaks and kapok. Roots are held firmly in the ground. Leaves touch each other in the clouds. Whether it is a cold wave or a wind ray, they will always be strong and go along with each other.
