Swan Defence and Heavy Industries (SDHI) and Wheel & Time Shipping Transport Logistics have tied up to launch integrated FAST (fabrication, assembly, storage and transportation) logistics system.
The facility will help the venture tap into companies dealing with material handling equipment at ports, marine infrastructure, petrochemicals, offshore EPC, oil & gas infrastructure and heavy engineering.
The partnership will enable companies to shorten project execution timelines, minimise handoffs, reduce overall project risks, and offer scalable solutions connected to global shipping networks.
“Together, we can offer customers a more integrated, end-to-end solution. The FAST logistics ecosystem allows EPC contractors and heavy industry players to concentrate on innovation and last-mile delivery, while we manage the complexities from fabrication to transportation,” said Vivek Merchant, Director at SDHI.
Spread over 600 acres, SDHI has India’s largest dry dock with a capacity to fabricate and assemble structures of 10,000 tonnes per month.
