Frequently Asked Questions
What does shipment consolidation at KTB mean?
KTB bundles orders from several suppliers into one ship-ready consignment, reducing process costs, warehousing effort and time in MRO procurement. Consolidation generally means combining individual purchases into one shared shipment to cut interfaces, dispatches and handling.
How does order consolidation work?
KTB obtains quotes from various suppliers worldwide, processes the orders and brings the parts together in the KTB central warehouse. A bundled process generally follows the steps of sourcing, consolidation and joint dispatch, instead of many separate supply chains. Many individual orders thus become one coordinated flow.
Are the ordered parts inspected before shipment?
Yes. Ordered spare parts are checked in the KTB central warehouse and prepared for dispatch according to customer requirements. A check before bundled dispatch generally ensures the consolidated items are complete and suitable for joint transport.
Which steps does KTB handle during consolidation?
From quote comparison through order processing, tracking and logistics to export clearance, KTB handles all the work steps. Consolidation thus generally covers the whole stretch between supplier selection and a ship-ready consignment, without the customer steering individual interfaces.
What benefits does consolidation bring for industrial buyers?
By bundling suppliers and purchases, costs in logistics, management and packaging can be reduced and availability secured to individual needs. For industrial customers with many small MRO items, this very bundling is a common way to lower procurement complexity and effort.
