When Precision Counts
Accuracy
Meticulous Two-Pronged Strategy Keeps Production AliveOnly 16½ hours stood between the 2,300-kilometre transport of 20 tonnes of materials from northern Spain to Frankfurt and shut-down of the production line at 00:30 Saturday morning. Working closely with the client, World Courier expedited the delivery of five tonnes of materials − enough to keep production running for the weekend − via charter air-craft, successfully delivering the consignment on Friday night. The re-maining 15 tonnes were conveyed by 18-wheeler to the French/German border. Due to a truck ban prohibiting large transport trucks on German motorways between 10:00 p.m. Saturday and 10:00 p.m. Sunday, the contents were transferred to two smaller awaiting vans. With an early Monday morning delivery, production never missed a beat.

Time-critical shipments
On good days, everything hums along according to plan. Assembly lines run without fail. Compo-nents are steadily funnelled onto the production floor from the just-in-time stock inventory. Aircraft engines roar to life. Ships are on course and on schedule. The off-shore oil rig is meeting its quota. The presses are rolling.
Suddenly everything stops. When a line goes down or critical equipment fails, the implications for business can be massive. World Courier’s speed, resourceful-ness and unparalleled customer service can get you up and running with the shortest possible delay.
At World Courier, we design ‘outside the box’ routings for each and every shipment, utilising a combination of first-flight-out transport, dedicated drive-aways, hand-carries and chartered aircraft to engineer the earliest possible delivery. No consolidation or bulk loading − ever.
Within 15 minutes, customers receive detailed scenarios of up to three transport solutions designed
to meet their needs and budget − in the most timely manner, even as a driver has already been dispatched for the pick-up.
Each of World Courier’s 150 offices in 50 countries operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year including holidays and weekends. All calls are immediately for-warded to an experienced staff member regardless of the hour.
Execution is our strength. We are supremely in tune with our environment of local transport alternatives, suppliers, customs requirements, clearance capabili-ties and manpower, leaving nothing to chance. Each office has a team of fully trained couriers equipped for dispatch at a moment’s notice.
We have specialised in handling time-critical ship-ments since incorporation in 1969. Thousands of companies worldwide trust World Courier with their most urgent shipments; thus ensuring that their deliveries arrive on time, every time.
Case StudyThursday, 18.00 – Eirtech Aviation, an Aircraft Maintenance Specialist in Shannon, see www.eirtechaviation.ie got word that an aircraft part from the US due for arrival on the Friday had not been shipped as expected. It needed to be there before Monday as otherwise it would cost their customer $10,000 in penalties each day it was late. This sprung World Courier into action, mobilizing a driver to retrieve the part on the Thursday, getting it on the first available next flight out to Dublin on the Friday and arriving in Dublin early Saturday am. Successfully coordinating the paperwork and the driver it was delivered to Shannon within 3 hours of landing at Dublin to the waiting maintenance crew. What impressed Eirtech most was our immediate response, detailed options and real time updates which resulted in the aircraft departing as scheduled and zero penalties to their customer.
