NorthGate Regional Distribution Redesign

Project
Logistics and distribution
2025

Overview

NorthGate engaged Tavra Group to redesign its distribution network after rapid customer growth created uneven inventory, rising transfer movements and inconsistent delivery service. The project combined network modelling with warehouse and planning changes, enabling the client to improve service without immediately adding another regional facility.

Challenge

Branches ordered independently, stock policies were uniform across very different items and more than 14% of monthly warehouse movements were internal transfers. Customer lead times varied by region, while management reports did not separate supplier delay, inventory unavailability and warehouse execution.

Supply Chain and Logistics

Tavra Group designs and improves supply chains across sourcing, planning, warehousing, transport and distribution. We balance service, inventory, cost and resilience, using operational evidence rather than a single optimisation target. Our team can move from network analysis to warehouse routines and carrier management, ensuring that the recommended model can be operated in real conditions.

Operational Excellence

Operational Excellence improves the reliability, speed and economics of day-to-day work. Tavra Group diagnoses how value moves through an organisation, identifies loss and variability, then works with frontline and management teams to redesign processes. The emphasis is on control, capability and measurable operating routines - not one-off cost cutting that returns after the project closes.

Strategy and Growth Advisory

Tavra Group helps leadership teams convert ambition into a focused growth agenda. We combine market evidence, commercial analysis and operating knowledge to clarify where to compete, how to win and what must change inside the organisation. The work is practical by design: decisions are translated into priorities, owners, investment choices and measurable actions rather than left as presentation material.
