Client: Elbit Systems — Land Division. Location: Ramat Beka campus, the Negev. Service: Engineering consulting for warehouse and production-facility planning.
Background
The Ramat Beka campus is one of Elbit’s central operational sites in the Negev, consolidating development, manufacturing and logistics under one roof. Mashik was selected to lead the planning of the campus’s warehousing and facilities array — the largest project of its kind in Israel, spanning over 60 dunam (6 hectares) and dozens of facilities and warehouses.
The Challenge
Planning warehouses within a complex industrial campus requires balancing several constraints: optimal use of storage space, efficient material flow between the warehouse and the production lines, safe and regulation-compliant operation, and meeting tight schedule and budget targets.
What the warehouse planning included
- Layout planning and zoning by function and movement frequency.
- Material-flow characterization from receiving through dispatch.
- Selection of storage and handling systems matched to the inventory types.
- Design of picking areas, loading/unloading docks and logistics interfaces.
- Scenario testing using analytical models and simulation.
The value Mashik delivered
- A plan tailored to the operational goals and the future growth of the campus.
- Improved space utilization and shorter internal transport distances.
- Engineering coordination between the warehousing array, the production lines and the campus infrastructure.
Why it matters
The project demonstrates the expertise of Mashik’s Engineering Consulting Division in warehouse planning and factory planning for leading organizations in Israel. Leading a project of this scale demands proven experience, a deep understanding of production processes, and the ability to translate complex requirements into an executable plan.
