Archis picks Apex for £5m contract

Archis Scaffolding has awarded a £5 million contract to Apex Logistics Solutions, for storage and distribution of scaffolding equipment over the next five years.

“We needed a supplier with the technical expertise to manage the flow of materials across our supply chain,” said Matthew Warner, chief executive of Archis Scaffolding Solutions.

“We have complex requirements, such as the need to manage visually identical hired and purchased materials often travelling on the same vehicle; recovery and refurbishment of damaged equipment; and the stock control of hundreds of thousands of articles between dozens of sites.”

Apex managing director David Perry said: “We are looking to work with clients that are open to innovation, and Archis Scaffolding is a perfect match. They, like us, have a lot of drive to disrupt their industry, and we can’t wait to work with that energy”.
