Freight & Trade Alliance member
Independent project logistics
AU Logistics does not own or operate transport or storage assets. We write the movement specification, compare qualified providers against the same scope and keep assumptions, responsibilities and decisions visible. Clients may contract directly with selected providers. Where a client prefers and a written scope is agreed, Nuestra Development Pty Ltd trading as AU Logistics can contract to manage an end-to-end project-logistics solution and appoint qualified third-party service providers.
Practical help for your next shipment
Tell us where, when and what you need. We source container options through independent suppliers and help coordinate delivery.
Turn your verified shipment information into clear, consistent paperwork, without a full consulting project.
We confirm scope, price and turnaround before work starts. You verify the facts and arrange signing or lodgement where required; specialist documents are separately scoped.
Ask for document helpFour ways we help
Every engagement produces something you can inspect and act on: a movement specification, tender, decision model, compliance pack or evidenced cost view.
Oversize, out-of-gauge and sensitive cargo planned across route, access, lifting, handling, permits, milestones and hand-offs.
See project freightOne scope, one scoring model and provider bids normalised before commercial negotiation begins.
See tender supportLanded-cost, dangerous-goods and documentation work rebuilt from evidence rather than generic assumptions.
See decision supportTest layouts, flows, delays and capacity scenarios before committing capital or accepting a delivery promise.
Explore the twinThe practical workflow
The method is simple enough to explain and rigorous enough to defend.
Cargo, lane, timing, site, commercial, safety and regulatory constraints become one written brief.
Routes, interfaces and scenarios are challenged before dates or provider promises become commitments.
Qualified providers price the same requirement; gaps, exclusions and assumptions are made comparable.
Responsibilities, milestones, exceptions and evidence are maintained through execution and close-out.
Proof of method
Anonymised planning, qualification, screening and modelling examples. Each states the decision at risk, AU Logistics' work, the responsibility boundary and the durable output.
Value: route, vehicle, cargo and site gates were identified before transport commitment.
See the case 02Supplier qualificationValue: custody, insurance and regulated-service responsibilities were clarified before qualification.
See the case 03Facility operational fitValue: operational and commercial gates prevented premature property commitment.
See the case 04Dangerous goods + landed costValue: provider, documentation and fulfilment assumptions were compared without inventing an outcome.
See the case 05Digital-twin demonstratorValue: baseline and alternatives were compared without claiming client implementation.

Why asset-light matters
A fleet, yard or warehouse can be useful. Owning one can also bias the answer. We have no utilisation target, so we can compare specialist carriers, forwarders, cranes, storage partners and routes on the evidence for your job.
Decide before you disrupt
Upload a plan, describe the change in plain language and compare layout, flow, congestion, timing and capacity in a visual decision model.
When to call
We add the most value before the purchase order, Incoterm, delivery date, access plan or provider scope becomes fixed.
Capital equipmentResolve the delivery point, route, handling and responsibility map while the commercial terms are still negotiable.
Provider appointmentIssue one movement specification and compare qualified responses against the same operational result.
Start before the expensive decisions are fixed
We will tell you plainly whether we can help, what evidence is missing and the next sensible step. We do not need to sell you freight.
