Client Industry: Electrical & Infrastructure Projects
Route: Singapore to Kedah, Malaysia
Service Provided: Export clearance, industrial cargo handling, long-haul delivery, site-drop coordination


Background

A Malaysian contractor involved in rural infrastructure upgrades needed urgent delivery of large-drum industrial cables from Singapore to a project site in Kedah. The cargo consisted of multiple cable reels with high weight and size, requiring custom handling and long-distance logistics planning.


Challenges

  • Long-haul route from Singapore to Kedah (approx. 700 km)

  • Heavy cargo requiring lifting equipment and drum securing

  • Urgent delivery timeline due to live-site installation schedule

  • Export permit and HS code classification for electrical goods


Our Solution

NAVEGA provided a seamless solution with end-to-end coordination:

  • Arranged export clearance (K2, Form D) and declared the correct HS code for insulated cables

  • Dispatched our in-house 24-ft truck equipped with tailgate and lashing tools

  • Coordinated directly with the Kedah site team for morning delivery window

  • Used secure drum-chock techniques to prevent rolling and damage in transit

  • Provided real-time updates at each transit point (Singapore > Johor > KL > Kedah)


Result

The cables were delivered within 24 hours, safely and on time. The site manager praised our team for:

“Excellent handling of heavy cargo and fast delivery over such a long distance.”

Following this project, the client engaged us for bi-monthly deliveries of project materials to northern Malaysia.
