PROCUREMENT

The strength of our procurement service is a reflection of the strength of the relationships we have built with key manufacturers and suppliers. We negotiate contract prices and use our bulk purchasing power to access the best quality products from international sources. Through these relationships we cut out the middle man to contain costs and elevate quality.

From sourcing FF&E at the most competitive prices globally, to ongoing co-ordination with the interior designer, architect and hotel operator through each stage of the development, and management of the budget.

FF&E is custom-made to the specification of the design consultants. Ongoing inspections and quality control management over our manufacturers, ensures quality and suitably specified furniture is manufactured and delivered to the project. Kitchen, laundry, OS&E, technical and back of house areas are all coordinated closely with the hotel operator.

Hotel Spec’s proprietary procurement software enables us to track all line items from tender stage right through to final handover and asset register. Our cloud based software allows us to draw detailed reports from anywhere in the world, and provide accurate updates.

WAREHOUSE & LOGISTICS

We use an automated tracking, inventory, warehousing and freight management system to ensure that all shipments arrive on site when they are needed. We assist your import agent, taking care of the freight clearing and forwarding, paperwork, packaging, routing and storage. This consolidated approach means that you save money and time, and avoid costly delays.

INSTALLATION & HAND-OVER

Our project teams receive and install all furniture, fittings and equipment in the correct locations, with unfailing attention to the design specifications. This includes checking the inventory; positioning furniture; hanging all artworks; performing minor repair work as necessary; fine-tuning the communication systems; testing service equipment; ‘burning in’ kitchen fittings ; training staff in equipment operations; and preparing asset registers for the entire development.

Once we have completed a full snag list and resolved every item on that list, we hand you the keys and add your name to our growing list of satisfied clients.
