• '['NT Just-in-Time's longawaited three-year, 27m contract to supply the Rover Group's Longbridge car assembly lines with components from a nearby dedicated warehouse was confirmed last week.
The 9,000m2 warehouse at Wythall will store parts for the Rover Group's Metro cars produced at Longbridge, and for the new R8 model, currently under pre-launch development.
Nominated suppliers will feed the warehouse at prearranged times with components being received, checked, located and stored in racks arranged in a high-bay narrowaisle configuration.
TNT Contract Distribution managing director Brian Bolam says that Rover will be building 60 cars an hour on the Longbridge lines.
