There are numerous professions that require building a virtual team of outsourced B2B partners. For example, whether you are a corporate event planner, a wedding planner or a DMC (Destination Management Company), your clients entrust the success of their complex vision to your planning, vendor selection, and execution.

For virtually every need, there are consummate professionals whose entire business is based on building great relationships that stand the test of time placing an emphasis on developing a sustainable and repeatable business with a key number of accounts. For illustration, if you are planning a wedding you may reach out to B2B partners in the following industries: floral, catering, photography, music (bands / DJs), entertainment, design, tent, security, lighting, etc. In each instance, these vendors are highly specialized and a significant part, if not all, of their business, hiring, training and energy is devoted to producing these weddings and events.

Are You Working With Generalists or Specialists? 

However, noticeably absent are ground transportation specialists that focus specifically on group transportation that is highly customized and detail oriented.  There are lots of mass movement shuttles (i.e. a convention requiring 2000 people transported from A to B via motor coach).  But, for all the smaller group needs (think 150 attendees at a Corporate product launch or 250 wedding attendees) planners turn to the best they can find and generally speaking, they are generalists in transportation -- be it corporate black car or bus shuttle.  Believe it or not, there are no “transportation specialists for events or small groups”.  

Until now.

Designing Your Event Ground Transportation 

We see a real need to help planners all over the world plan their events and offer professional insight into the transportation needs. Just as there are a million ways the flowers might be prepared or the menu catered, there are numerous options for ground transportation to fit different needs, budgets, aesthetics, preferences, etc.

For example, to move 200 guests, you could use 50 - 100 luxury sedans, a similar number of SUVs, or 15 or so Mercedes Sprinter Vans, eight luxury minibuses, or just four buses. And, depending on needs, is everyone to be loaded at all once? Or, can the first vehicles load, do the trip, and return to the lineup and be ‘recycled’ to transport additional guests? All of these decisions influence the look and feel of the transportation (and the budget) and can be designed to ensure success.

Likewise, we are big proponents of hiring professional on-site coordinators to aid in the dispatching, the loading and unloading of guests and ensuring that all of the theoretical design elements are put in practice on game day.

In addition to multiple phone calls and planning meetings, a properly designed transportation plan includes multiple on-site visits to determine feasibility, best practices, incorporate changes such as tree limb removal, height clearances, traffic patterns, staging areas, etc. Once the design phase is agreed to and signed off on, the best practice is to do “dry runs” with whatever vehicle selection is most worrisome (for example, turn radius on a van, height clearance on a bus).

Logistics and Execution For Your Next Top Event

Once the design phase and the dry runs are completed, a full-service Transportation Agency needs to be able to handle the logistics and execution (the production) phase to actually get it done. Just like the planners can't do everything themselves in house, and rely on trusted vendors they have developed a relationship with over years of working together on similar jobs, a transportation agency needs to have a robust global network of affiliates that are capable of handling the rigor, details, and exacting details communicated to ensure the Client’s vision is being executed. Furthermore, as you work with one Agency over time, you will begin to speak the same language and eventually be able to complete each other's sentences. There should be a relationship knowledge, and corporate knowledge of how you work together and the minutiae that you used to have to micromanage are now transferred to your partner with the specific expertise to make it real.
