«  Welcome to one of GEFCO's preparation and post-production centres.
– In order to cut costs, today's manufacturers tend to standardise vehicle production. But they also have to customise these same products, to satisfy the requirements of local markets and individual buyers. Vehicle customisation is therefore best carried-out as close as possible to the final customer.
– This is called “Post Production Operations” (PPO).
– There is much more to GEFCO than trucks, trains and transport hubs. Of course, GEFCO provides transportation services, but the company also performs post-production operations to customise vehicles to the customer's specifications.
– Here are four illustrations of how GEFCO provides carmakers with high added-value responses to their logistics requirements.
– Take the production of a limited series of a given vehicle model. Thanks to its platforms all over Europe, GEFCO can customise the vehicles as close to the end buyer as possible, while respecting the manufacturer's strict quality and safety standards.
– GEFCO is the only logistics operator to have developed a thermoformed cover to protect vehicles during transport. Another example that illustrates the company's ability to guarantee top quality. 
– The same industrial approach and commitment to meeting the constructor's specifications can be found further along the supply chain, where GEFCO provides vehicle Pre-Delivery Inspection services. 
– And the last example.  GEFCO's Nostramonde information system guarantees traceability and provides customers with key indicators. Carmakers and dealers alike can see exactly where every vehicle is in the logistics chain at any time.
– There you are! All of this expert know-how, from PPO to PDI, demonstrates GEFCO's capacity to re-engineer its production processes. Much more than a simple supply chain operator, GEFCO can also provide valuable strategic and tactical advice. »
