Case

Scaling the warehouse network behind a wind energy operation

Mobile crane lifting wrapped heavy equipment during a specialized logistics operation.

30+ wind farm sites. 16,000+ SKUs. One logistics network built to scale with the customer’s growing North American wind energy operations.

What started with a single warehouse in Dallas developed into a broader network across Houston and Toronto, with a new crane-equipped facility in Montreal underway.

As the operation grew, so did the complexity. The customer needed faster access to time-critical turbine parts, reliable handling of oversized components, stronger inventory visibility and less dependence on unnecessary cross-border movements.

From growing complexity to one integrated network

SGL brought warehousing, transportation, inventory management and specialised project logistics together in one coordinated setup.

That included barcode-enabled inventory visibility, dedicated transport solutions for urgent turbine-offline shipments and specialised handling for major wind components.

By regionalising distribution, we also helped simplify flows and bring critical inventory closer to where it was needed.

Lower cost, better visibility, less downtime risk

The result was approximately 7.5% savings on warehousing costs, improved inventory accuracy and faster access to critical parts.

For the customer, that means fewer logistics handovers, less operational complexity and a lower risk of costly turbine downtime.

Most importantly, it gives their team a scalable logistics setup that can continue supporting growth across North America.
