Integrated Logistics Management for a Humanitarian Mission
We managed the full logistics operations of a multi-sector humanitarian mission across three African countries, coordinating the movement of over 120 trucks carrying diverse supplies to successfully support a joint UN program.
This mission required complex cross-border coordination, with our responsibilities covering customs clearance, secure storage in three different hubs, and last-mile delivery to remote field locations — ensuring an uninterrupted and reliable supply chain.
Project Challenges and How We Overcame Them
The main challenge was dealing with different customs procedures across three countries while ensuring road security. We overcame this through our local partner network and meticulous planning.
- Cross-Border Customs Clearance
- Secure Storage Management
- Ground Transport Coordination
- Accurate Shipment Tracking
Why does this project stand out as a success?
Here are some of the reasons why this achievement is remarkable:
- Effective Cross-Border Coordination: We streamlined complex customs clearance procedures across three countries, reducing delays and ensuring smooth cargo flow.
- Uninterrupted Supply Chain: We maintained a continuous flow of supplies, even in the face of logistical and security challenges along transport routes.
- Transparency and Precise Tracking: Our partner received unified, real-time tracking reports for all shipments, providing full visibility of the entire operation.
- Leveraging Local Partner Networks: The expertise of our local partners in navigating regulations and terrain was crucial in overcoming unexpected obstacles and securing safe delivery routes.
