The agency maintains the largest emergency relief stockpile in the US, encompassing more than one million liters of water and hundreds of thousands of ready-to-eat meals and mass care supplies. In 2007, NYCEM contracted with us to manage its Logistics Shelter Support and Commodity Distribution Points programs. In 2017, the agency renewed our multiyear partnership, expanding the scope to include mass feeding and other logistics. Solution One of GXO’s responsibilities with NYCEM is to expedite goods to approximately 100 shelters across five boroughs when severe weather or other hazardous events disrupt supplies. When a Logistics Shelter Support mobilization order is issued, we have a 24-hour window to deploy logistics and distribution resources, stage shipments and begin managing inventory replenishment. In 2020, when COVID-19 arrived, we mounted an agile response—activating our all-hazard emergency management program with NYCEM to support frontline workers. Our specialist teams served as a logistics lifeline for NYCEM around the clock, seven days a week. Critical services included the large-scale distribution of medical supplies and cots to the Javits Convention Center, which operated as an emergency medical station. Results Leveraged resources in the northeastern United States to meet NYCEM’s pandemic needs Managed complex logistics activities in an extended emergency -response situation Deployed pop-up warehouses and commodity distribution points across the city Utilized trailers for portable temperature-controlled and dry storage Safely reopened a demobilized warehouse for immediate occupancy Performed specialist kitting and other high-value-add services unique to the pandemic Get the latest updates on what’s new in logistics This site is protected by reCAPTCHA and the Google Privacy Policy and Terms of Service apply. © 2021 GXO Logistics, Inc.
