TRANSNET CONCIERGE LOGISTICS®
When you are the project manager responsible for procuring all of the FF&E for a luxury resort, hotel complex or timeshare development, making sure the project is delivered on time and on budget is paramount.
As a leading provider of FF&E logistics services, TRANSNET CONCIERGE LOGISTICS® understands the importance of a reliable supply chain. We operate and manage a world-wide network of offices and agencies to provide the FF&E purchasing manager with a complete transportation solution. Regardless of origin or mode Trans-NET can meet your needs.
We believe each project has its own inherent list of requirements. Trans-NET tailors its offering around the customer’s specific needs. From a manufacturer who may only want goods delivered to the initial port of discharge to a purchasing company who may need domestic delivery, warehouse staging and installation, Trans-NET will develop the appropriate solution. Instead of dealing with multiple freight management companies and installers we offer a single source of control.
Moving the FF&E is only part of the solution. Our web based tracking technology provides the purchase order/shipment status information purchasing managers need which is critical to anticipating gaps in supply flow or late factory fulfillment. Knowing about problems in advance is critical to preempting crisis situations as projects near completion dates. With Trans-NET’s tracking system problems can be identified and overcome in a measured cost effective way.
Even the best of networks or technology is still no substitute for good personnel.
Trans-NET prides itself in selecting tenured logistics professionals who understand the needs of the hospitality industry. Each project is assigned a project manager who manages the program from model room to final installation. We believe our customers are not only looking for convenience but a single point of accountability. Trans-NET delivers that support.
TRANSNET CONCIERGE LOGISTICS® knows every new hotel or renovation involves hundreds of purchase orders, dozens of vendors and multiple supply points all over the world. Timing the transportation and installation of the FF&E is critical to the project’s success. Making sure it arrives in one piece and on budget is priceless. Let’s talk...
