New contract presents new supply model
»»
FOLLOWING A COMPETITIVE tender, Camden Group, the UK’ s leading trade frame manufacturer, is delighted to announce that it has been appointed as the window and door supplier to Evander Group, one of the UK’ s leading specialists in glazing, doors and windows. Through its national infrastructure of 19 depots, Evander provides 24 / 7, emergency response and fulfilment services to UK domestic insurers( including major brands such as Aviva, LBG and RSA), the commercial sector and direct to consumers.
“ Because of the nature of its business- around two-thirds of Evander’ s business comes through insurance claims- the Evander contract presents fresh challenges for Camden,” says Sales Manager, Roy Harrison.“ Generally, with a major customer the size of Evander, you’ re manufacturing and delivering large numbers of windows and doors to a specific site or depot.
“ However, as Evander is an emergency service provider, our work with Evander flips the normal supply model on its head and requires us to fulfil a very large number of orders- usually consisting of a single replacement door or window- and deliver those orders across their full depot network, from Aberdeen to Plymouth.”
“ From a manufacturing perspective, it’ s not that much of a difference as every product we produce is tailor-made anyway. But from an IT, project management and logistics perspective, it’ s a very different ball game, and our ability to deliver such a complex contract is testimony to the innovation and investment Camden has made in our IT and management infrastructure and logistics capabilities over the past couple of years. All of which goes to show that, for Camden, no order is too small!”
