COLLIERS and Pollen Consulting Group are teaming up to deliver an end-to-end industrial advisory service, in an industry-first collaboration.
The collaboration will see industrial advisory specialists from Colliers and supply chain experts at Pollen work to see the value of supply chains, technology, automation and property maximised for occupiers.
“Two groups of industry experts from separate companies with very different, but related, expertise coming together to create a strategic partnership. This truly unique collaboration of specialists is turning industrial complexity into opportunity,” said Doug Henry, managing director of occupier services for Colliers Australia.
As a market leader in the manufacturing, logistics and supply chain sector, Pollen will provide initial analysis and ensure each client’s specific needs are understood and provide an appropriate solution.
“This is an exciting new partnership for Pollen. The recent advancements in technology and automation have enabled facilities to be more consumption-driven and geared to fulfilment. Understanding and planning for a changing world is the challenge that has presented itself for many occupiers,” said Paul Eastwood, CEO at Pollen.
Collier will bring both property information and negotiation skills to the collaboration, enabling the delivery of newly secured or renegotiated facilities , with projects also being completed through Colliers’ Project Leaders Business.
“Warehouses are becoming larger and more sophisticated, and therefore greater focus is being applied to the planning and implementation of various racking, automation and technology solutions,” said Peter Evans, national director of industry advisory at Colliers.
“In addition, COVID has accelerated warehouse demand which is expected to peak later in 2021-2022. Supply chains have been tested and our clients are questioning what the post-COVID supply chain is going to be. This is just one area we look forward to helping our clients solve,” concluded Evans.
