An intralogistics project specification is much more than just a document. It’s a real guide that defines the objectives, constraints, needs and expectations of all the stakeholders involved in the project.
The absence of a clear reference document increases the risk of project failure with :
- Misunderstandings between the various players and divergent interpretations of needs.
- A lack of coherence and solutions that ultimately turn out to be partial or unsuitable.
- Cost and deadline overruns, linked to unidentified constraints and the absence of a precise framework.
The consequences can be significant and have repercussions on the entire activity :
- A poorly designed intralogistics solution can be difficult to operate on a day-to-day basis, leading to malfunctions and loss of productivity.
- A poorly adapted system may require costly future modifications.
- A failed project can have a negative impact on the internal and external image of the company.
