Case Study

Mocksville Fulfilment Center

The Challenge

Due to supply chain shortages, we experienced a slight delay in receiving the materials, but the biggest obstacle was with the building construction.  The building did not have a driveway or dock levelers installed making it difficult to get the materials to the building. There was a lack of lighting at the time of installation as the building was under construction. So various other contractors needed to be worked around.

Mocksville Rack Warehouse Installation

The Solution

The customer placed the rack order in time to avoid extreme price increases and extended lead times. We put a rush on completing the warehouse design so the bill of materials could be sent to the manufacturer. We then had five days from the manufacturer’s quote to review it with the customer and get their approval to move forward.

The building was still under construction due to material and labor shortages. The building also had no power; therefore there wasn’t enough lighting to safely install the racking. We rented generators to power the lights so the work could begin without delay.

The dock levelers were not installed and the driveway was still being poured, so we made arrangements to drive our trucks directly into the building to be unloaded.

We had to be in constant communication with the general contractor of the building in order to coordinate our rack installation around their work. We needed space to build the racking, but they needed access to the ceiling to install lighting, run power and data lines. So they needed this same floor space to clean construction debris.

We were able to complete the rack installation prior to the building construction being completed. This was a huge benefit to the customer because they wanted to immediately use the racking once they were able to move in.
