Facilities

The design of the specific logistics facility evolves from the operational design, what work is to be accomplished, and how it is done.  Using the "bottoms up" approach, Distribution Design determines the characteristics of the facility, namely, how long and wide, how tall, how many dock doors, and what type of sprinkler system will be needed.
