The TMX difference
- Undertook an end-to-end operational review looking at multiple business case scenarios to determine the optimum operational model and the consolidation of Snackbrands NSW distribution and manufacturing operations into one central site.
- A state-of-the-art 40,000 pallet ASRS automated solution with future expansion for 10,000 pallets was chosen.
- TMX coordinated the manual and automation design, concepts and articulated to Snackbrands the full ASRS costing and associated benefits.
- Provided support to Snackbrands in the detailed design, implementation (until go live) and commissioning phases for the automation solution to ensure a smooth transition.
- TMX managed the review and evaluation of tender responses from the automation providers before advising and negotiating on behalf of Snackbrands.
- Project management of the delivery of the facility integrating the automation into the base building and delivering the facility on time and within budget.
