From Order to Delivery: Your Vehicles’ Journey Through the Supply Chain

Ordering new commercial vehicles involves considerable effort and investment for your company. Between order and delivery lies a complex journey through the supply chain, in which numerous processes and service providers must be precisely coordinated. In this article, we’ll show you step by step how your vehicles get from the production line to your door. And how Holman can actively support you along the way – transparently, efficiently, and with maximum planning security.

1. It All Starts With Your Needs

Whether leasing, purchasing or fleet replacement – the first step is deciding on the right financing option. But choosing the right vehicle is just as critical: you have to weigh up the different brands, models, features, colors, and intended use. All of this as efficiently as possible and tailored to your individual needs.

How Can We Help You?

We work with you to analyze your needs, provide brand-independent advice, and provide a realistic assessment of the vehicle’s future value. Upon request, we can also handle the entire order process. Ultimately, however, you decide which vehicles best suit your needs. Once you’ve made your selection, we initiate the ordering process – and the supply chain gets moving.

2. Planning & Production – Every Detail Counts

Once your order is received, production planning starts at the manufacturer. Component availability, manufacturing capacities and individual special requests must be precisely coordinated with each other – delays are not uncommon. This means a lot of coordination and uncertainty as to whether everything can be delivered on time.

You Can Hand Over These Uncertainties to Us.

We keep track of production times, communicate directly with manufacturers, and keep everything on schedule. With digital systems, you can get up-to-date information about the status of your vehicles at any time – and sit back and relax.

3. Logistics at Full Speed

After production, the logistics process begins – by truck, rail, or ship. Numerous uncertainties lurk here, too: Delays, interim storage, or a lack of transparency cost valuable time and resources.

Logistics at Full speed So You Stay on Top of Things:

Holman manages the entire transport chain for you – including coordinating all involved suppliers and logistics partners. Thanks to a digital dashboard, you can see where your vehicles are at any time. We identify potential delays early on and intervene proactively. This way, you always stay informed – and your vehicles reliably on track.

4. Customization As Desired

Before your vehicles arrive, we can customize them – if desired: from conversions to service vehicles, ladder structures, branding through wraps, or special technical modifications, such as cooling systems. These processes require additional planning and can quickly become confusing without central coordination.

Rely on Our Experience:

We take over the complete coordination of your customizations for you: We manage all conversions and modifications through our network of certified partners, ensuring the highest quality, the best conditions, and seamless integration into your fleet – without the hassle of coordinating multiple service providers simultaneously. This way, a standard vehicle becomes exactly what you need.

5. Registration & Delivery – Ready for Use

Almost there – now only the last step remains: registration and on-time delivery. But this is precisely where unclear responsibilities, paperwork, or lengthy administrative procedures can unnecessarily delay the process.

Sit Back – We’ll Take Care of It:

Holman digitizes the entire registration process, coordinates all necessary steps, and precisely coordinates the delivery date with you. Your vehicles arrive fully prepared and ready for use – without any unpleasant surprises.
