Here are two new projects recently completed by the Logistics Plus (LP) Project Cargo Team. For the first project shown below, the LP India team safely delivered the first GE locomotive from under hook to its track within 44 hours (for which we received a nice compliment from our customer). LP India’s scope was as follows:
Receiving cargo under hook;
Customs clearance;
The movement to identified location for the overnight halting of a locomotive; and
All equipment including shackles, strings, spreader beams, traverser, jacks, etc., were designed and made (produced from specific vendors) specific to GE’s requirements.
The second project shown below was completed by the LP Houston team and involved the safe loading of coiled tubings at Port Houston.
