Luis Talavera, commercial director of LYL Engineering, is industrial engineer. In 2002, together with Lorenzo Vázquez, founds LYL Engineering in Barcelona. Collaborating with companies world-wide leaders in his sectors, LYL Engineering offers technological solutions to different industrial states, the logistics and the transport, for those processes where exists the need to “see what is difficult to see”, or said of another way: where is necessary to do visible the invisible to guarantee the hygiene of the people, the profitability of the services and the quality of the processes.

What ask his customers?

Fundamentally and without distinction of sectors, our customers aspire to be more competitive through the integration of technological solutions in his processes of manufacture, distribution, logistical and transport.

How it thinks that his company can help to his customers?

Our solutions contribute them the capacity to improve and optimise his efficiency, efficiency and profitability. If we centre us in the needs of the logistics operators, of transport and distribution, the systems of detection, weighing, volumetric measurement, classification, expedition and distribution of packaging are allied strategic for the companies. The integration of our technological systems can accelerate and rentabilizar the operation, in addition to guaranteeing his quality.

It considers that at present the companies are investing and innovando properly to adapt to the challenges of the market?

The scale of investment of each company is directly related with his peculiarities and realities. If we take into account that the technology always goes a go past, could consider that all the companies have possibility of improvement. In the measure of his possibilities, the companies invest. The companies know that they have to adapt to the requirements of the market. Nowadays, the market demands immediacy, hygiene, quality and lower cost. Definitely, the technology is key to offer it and follow competing successfully.

Can that in some cases try sell to a customer a no appropriate equipment to his needs?

I want to think that no. Of course no from LYL Engineering. It is more, it wanted to think that if this has occurred in some occasion by part of a provider to his customer has been by accident, by error in the understanding of the need or like consequence of a bad dimensioning of the proposal. In our case, split of the base to be an engineering, and like such study to consciousness the case to arrive to a final proposal optimised to the real needs of the customer. Besides, we do not act neither we are mere providers of equipment: we are integradores technological.

“The globalisation shortens distances and all can be everywhere, does not matter origin neither destination, what does to think in some logistical networks and of transport very ramificado and necessarily interconnected”

They find the human resources that need in logistics when the search?

It could seem that this is not a suitable question to a company as ours, since we do not consider us a logistical company. However, like provider of this sector has some sense: we will not be able to understand the needs yacentes and underlying of our logistical customer if we do not have a deep knowledge of this activity. That's why our team incorporates, by a part, to professionals that have belonged and are specialists in the logistical sector and, by another, to those who have not gone forming in the speciality to be able to understand very well the needs that generate and, in this way, can contribute the solutions adecuadas.en LYL Engineering are very conscious that know the world that surrounds to our customer and can speak his same language facilitates the understanding, the understanding and the best results.

How it thinks that it goes to evolve the logistics in the future?

The shopping by Internet multiply every year and every time covers more products, so the operators will increase in number and in size. The globalisation shortens distances and all can be everywhere, does not matter origin neither destination, what does to think in some logistical networks and of transport very ramificado and necessarily interconnected. The shopping and the payments realizar of form very fast, so the terms of reception, expedition, transport and delivery will not have to be a rémora because the customer wants it or needs his purchase already. It increases exponencialmente the movement of loads of a point to another of the planet, further of the main focuses, like China or EE UU. The prices of the services go reducing like consequence of an economy of scale but also by factors of competition. Better services to lower prices. It imposes the reduction of costs …

In front of all these stages and others that leave in the drawer, fits to ask after the paper of the technology. By a part like dinamizadora of the change in the logistics and the transport in the sense of the efficiency and the improvement of the services. By another, by his capacity to print a new tempo to the processes. Also by his incidence in interconnecting in the space and in the time. By his place, in his potential to adapt permanently the costs of the processes to keep the competitiveness. Like this then , in LYL Engineering think that the evolution is not a question of future if no of present.
