DISPOSITION GAINS ON IMPORTANCE

The current situation on the world market presents a number of challenges. Rising prices for gas, oil and petrol are forcing companies to rethink, to optimize transports, to recalculate. For the project business, it is important to face the challenges and accept new circumstances as a reality. At the same time, due to the shift of production to Europe, the shortening of supply chains entails a higher demand for coordination. In order to pay sufficient attention to this issue and to shape changes in the best possible way in the interest of our partners and customers, BESCO, the Berliner Steincontor, has taken forward-looking action and strengthened its project management.

THE NEW POSITION OF THE DISPATCHER AT BESCO

A new position has been created: that of the dispatcher. This person is explicitly dealing with the coordination of goods transports, daily updated overviews of upcoming deliveries, the expansion of an optimized forwarding infrastructure and the coordination with the project management team.

Since this year, Mr. Marcel Zielke fulfills the role of the dispatcher and was warmly welcomed into the team of Berliner Steincontor. Thanks to the knowledge acquired in the industrial engineering studies and many years of experience in the coordination of transports and logistics, he knows exactly what it takes.

“The team at BESCO have welcomed me with open arms and since the beginning support me in all matters. Both customers and partners are grateful and at all times welcome any efforts to optimize transports, deliveries and logistics planning,” was Zielke’s first impression. “I am looking forward to working in a forward-thinking, family-run company with promising perspectives for the future and a pleasant working atmosphere.”

OUR VALUES

BESCO is a company that cares about its people and the future of our planet. For this reason, we invest in young professionals and compensate CO₂-emissions of all our transports in cooperation with our partner myClimate on a voluntary basis. We thank our customers and our partners for an continuously good cooperation and their trust.
