Projects

Managing complex transportation for large projects requires experienced, intelligent and knowledgeable personnel who are committed to researching all options, surveying potential problems, and reacting to extraordinary circumstances with quick and decisive actions.

Our approach is to break down logistics and transport into essential elements, and then to assign direct supervision over each. Advance trips by Operations Specialist to the key points in the project corridor ensure that MIDTRANS has the first-hand knowledge required to "make things happen". A Project Coordinator is then assigned to manage all facets of communication, logistics and transportation and become the direct liaison with our customers.

For demanding projects, MIDTRANS will locate Project Teams to establish on-site offices to take full responsibility for the co-ordination of incoming and outgoing shipments, including customs clearance and post landed services.


The success of MIDTRANS's Project Cargo lies in its commitment to understanding what is required. Our specialist advisers become fully conversant with the requirements of a project and ensure that customer-specified deadlines, safety aspects and special instructions are strictly adhered to.

 

MIDTRANS's full and wide ranging logistics capabilities makes it an ideal partner to ensure that even the smallest item, often imperative to the success of an operation, is in the right place at the right time.

The concept of project forwarding is embodied in the distant origins of the freight forwarding profession and may be simply described as the management of the movement of goods and materials, in non-standard packages by non-standard methods to or from non-standard destinations.

The project forwarder is, in effect, the architect within the transport chain, identifying and to a large extent, designing the most effective ways of moving goods and materials around the world, according to their individual needs.
Project cargo is by definition, time sensitive, as vast sums may be put at risk should materials arrive late, incomplete or damaged at their ultimate destination.
