PROJECT OVERVIEW:
Client: Hovensa
Timeline: 10 weeks
It’s one thing to provide accommodations on short notice to workers for an oil refinery turnaround. It’s another to do it during the peak of tourist season on St. Croix. But for Target Logistics, it was simply another job to get done. Drawing from more than 25 years of large-event logistics, we housed 1,500 workers between January and March in major hotels, private homes and condos. We also used our own in-house travel department to provide our clients with affordable airline tickets, private airport shuttles, and convenient transfers to and from the jobsite – at a moment’s notice.
KEY CHALLENGES
High tourist season. Housing shortage. Limited access.
THE EXTRA MILE
Every second counts in a turnaround. Therefore, we made our staff available 24 hours a day to assist with housing and transportation needs.
