SMART logistics fleet staged at the Orlando facility

Capability 05

The Right Materials, in the Right Place, at the Right Time.

Connect sourcing, receiving, staging, packing, transport, and site delivery through one coordinated workflow.

In practice

For out-of-town partners, that means an Orlando address, an Orlando receiving crew, and one point of accountability for what arrives on site.

Scope

What we support

Four connected functions. Most partners start with one and add the rest once the first project runs.

01

Purchasing

Sourcing against your specification, not a catalog substitution.

  • Vendor sourcing and competitive quoting
  • Purchase order placement and expediting
  • Specification and lead-time tracking against the build date
  • Consolidated purchasing across trades on one project

02

Receiving & staging

A local dock and a crew that checks what actually showed up.

  • Freight receiving and inspection at the Orlando facility
  • Damage documentation and discrepancy reporting
  • Project staging and inventory control against scope
  • Short-term project storage between delivery and install

03

Packing & movement

Protecting the asset for the route it actually takes.

  • Custom crates, pallets, and handling fixtures
  • Packing, blocking, bracing, and shrink wrap
  • Model, prop, and sensitive assembly transport
  • Site delivery, including scheduled off-hours windows
  • Crane and equipment coordination with the responsible operator

04

Out-of-town vendor support

Standing in for a partner who does not have people in Central Florida.

  • Third-party vendor support for out-of-town suppliers
  • Local receiving, staging, and last-mile delivery
  • Seasonal prop pickup, delivery, install, strike, and return
  • Return freight preparation and disposal coordination

Process

Material flow

One chain of custody from purchase order to work face.

  1. 01

    Source

    Quote, place, and expedite against the specification and the build date.

  2. 02

    Receive

    Inspect, document, and record against the project instead of a generic dock log.

  3. 03

    Stage

    Organized by install sequence and area so the crew is not searching for a pallet.

  4. 04

    Pack

    Crated and protected for the route, the handling equipment, and the site access.

  5. 05

    Deliver

    Scheduled to the work face, including off-hours windows where the site requires it.

Where our scope ends

  • SMART is not a freight forwarder and does not provide customs or bonded warehousing services.
  • Storage is project-based and limited by facility capacity — it is agreed in the scope, not open-ended.
  • Crane and heavy equipment operation stays with the responsible operator.

Built for

  • Out-of-town vendors needing an Orlando receiving and staging base
  • Project managers consolidating purchase and delivery accountability
  • Teams moving props, models, and sensitive assemblies
