We work with our clients from the early planning stages to make sure that all materials needed for a project will be available. If certain items cannot be obtained, we will recommend alternatives. GSL provide a combined solution by utilising our own massive inventory and creating special stock lines for the client. We may recommend the client holds certain critical lines in their own premises. The balance we fast track source from our global and local network of manufacturers and suppliers.

We then plan all logistics. Not only do we ensure that all items are delivered on time, we also plan the delivery schedule ensuring that items are delivered just in time and only when and where they are needed. This saves our customers from having to hold and manage their own inventory. Lastly, after a project is completed GSL offers post-project services such as closing out consignment and dedicated inventory. Together with the client we will perform a post-project analysis to look at how future projects can be better managed.
