Good site logistics practice is more than just ensuring that delivery vehicles turn up on time; it is about ensuring that design, procurement and construction practices are optimised to facilitate the efficient delivery, movement and installation of materials and components. This Digest is based upon research that BRE, in association with The Logistics Business Limited, is undertaking for the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI). It introduces the concept of construction logistics and explains the benefits to be gained by adopting good logistics practice. 12 pages.
