How users rate Holistic Logistics Planning and Factory Planning
100 % of reviewers would recommend this solution (counts reviews that scored the recommendation question 4 or 5 out of 5; 1 to 3 counts as no recommendation).
How we calculate the even Score
The even Score (0 to 100) sets the order of solutions. It is based only on published reviews:
- 85% quality: the average of performance, reliability and maintenance effort per review.
- Recency: newer reviews count more. After one year, a review counts only half as much.
- Smoothing: with few reviews, the value is pulled towards the category average. A single review cannot push a solution to the very top or bottom.
- 15% recommendation: how many reviewers would recommend the solution (NPS logic).
None of this can be bought: plans, advertising and partnerships play no part.

„Overall Review of Consulting Services“
Overall, the collaboration with the consultant was consistently very positive. In addition to a high level of professional expertise and extensive practical experience, he impressed above all with his friendly and professional working style. The knowledge he contributed, along with relevant benchmarks from other projects, played a key role in enabling well-founded and robust decisions to be made. Through his structured approach, flexibility throughout the project, and a strong understanding of our requirements, lasting added value was created in support of our objectives.
The consultant took our requirements and goals into account very effectively in his proposals. Particularly noteworthy is the fact that both the advantages and disadvantages of the individual options were presented in a neutral and transparent manner. Furthermore, the consultant took sufficient time to understand our business and our specific framework conditions in detail, which is clearly reflected in the quality and precision of the proposals.
Particularly helpful in achieving our project goals was the structured and targeted approach of the consulting engagement. A tailored project plan was developed that was optimally aligned with our requirements. The focus remained consistently on the key issues, which significantly increased efficiency throughout the course of the project. In addition, appropriate tools were used to systematically analyze large volumes of data and establish well-founded decision-making bases. Complementing this, the utility analyses conducted in particular helped to objectively compare various courses of action and arrive at clear, transparent decisions.
The consultant demonstrated a very high degree of flexibility in handling unexpected challenges and changes during the project. Even after the project had started, its scope was expanded where necessary and examined from new perspectives. Throughout this process, the consultant remained open to alternative viewpoints and actively incorporated them into further development, ensuring that the work always progressed in a focused and practical direction.
„"Logistics Planning for a European Lighthouse Project"“
In LOGSOL, we have a planning partner at our side who has fully understood the ambition and complexity of the new maintenance facility in Cottbus. The logistics planning is clearly structured, future-proof, and consistently designed for stable operations. LOGSOL brings not only deep specialist expertise in factory and logistics planning, but also the broader perspective needed to reliably support a project of this scale over many years. For us, LOGSOL is a trusted partner in the realization of one of the most modern maintenance facilities in Europe.
From the very beginning, LOGSOL engaged intensively with the specific requirements of the new maintenance facility in Cottbus. The long-term project horizon extending to 2028, the high complexity of operations, and the requirements for scalability and future viability were consistently integrated into the logistics planning. The concepts for material flow, spatial structure, and supply of the maintenance areas were clearly aligned with subsequent operations and have created a robust foundation for a facility of this scale.
Particularly helpful was LOGSOL's ability to logically structure the multitude of interfaces between planning, construction, and operations, and to bring them together in a coherent way. The planners made complex logistical relationships tangible and prepared decisions on a well-founded basis. This allowed us to set the right course early on and establish logistics as a cornerstone of the overall plant concept.
In a large-scale project of this dimension, adjustments were inevitable. LOGSOL handled these changes with great confidence, quickly analyzing new requirements and systematically advancing the logistics concepts. Particularly noteworthy was the forward-looking approach, which consistently took into account the potential impact on later expansion stages.
„Well-conceived planning with a clear practical focus“
LOGSOL supported our factory and logistics project with a great deal of experience and a very realistic perspective. The planning was transparent at every stage, well structured, and consistently focused on feasibility. What impressed us most was the combination of technical depth and a pragmatic approach. For companies seeking robust logistics or factory planning, LOGSOL is, in our view, a highly reliable partner.
From the very beginning, LOGSOL understood precisely where we wanted to take our factory and logistics project. Our constraints, growth targets, and operational specifics were consistently incorporated into the planning. The proposals were not theoretical but clearly tailored to our reality, helping us make sound decisions on layout, material flow, and space utilization.
Particularly valuable was the structured derivation of concepts. LOGSOL presented complex interrelationships in an accessible way and guided us step by step through the relevant questions. This allowed us to identify risks early and evaluate solutions without losing sight of the overall project. It gave the project a noticeable sense of security and momentum.
Changes during the course of the project were quickly picked up by LOGSOL and clearly categorized. The impact on schedules, costs, and processes was communicated openly, enabling us to make well-informed adjustments. This flexibility within the project contributed significantly to our ability to remain capable of acting even when new requirements arose.
„Reliable Partnership at Eye Level“
What began as a single planning project quickly developed into a partnership built on trust and close collaboration with Logsol. Through careful coordination, a deep understanding of our challenges, and a practice-oriented approach, we were able to develop shared solutions that integrate seamlessly into our operations. We were particularly impressed by how quickly Logsol made complex topics tangible and translated them into actionable concepts – ones that not only work today, but are designed to be future-proof. This combination of expertise, commitment, and genuine customer focus makes Logsol, in our view, a valuable partner we would wholeheartedly recommend.
Logsol provided invaluable support in sharpening our strategic goals in logistics and factory planning and defining clear priorities. On this basis, we were able to systematically advance our material flow, layout, and capacity planning. The result: more transparently structured processes, more efficient decision-making, and a significantly stronger foundation for our intralogistics projects.
Even when unexpected changes arose during the project, the consultants at Logsol responded with flexibility and pragmatism. Their solution-oriented approach and genuine understanding of our situation impressed us greatly – which is exactly why we look forward to working with Logsol again in the future.
Even in unexpected project situations, the planners at Logsol responded with confidence and found the right solutions with a great deal of flexibility. This reliable collaboration and their quick grasp of our requirements contributed significantly to the success of the project and further strengthened our trust in Logsol.
