Furniture is often one of the last things to arrive on a hotel project, and one of the easiest to delay. Building the right stages into your schedule early avoids a rush at the end.
The stages to plan for
- Quotation and shop drawings. Allow time for questions, drawings and approvals.
- Prototype. A sample of each new design is made and approved before production starts.
- Production. The longest stage, depending on quantity and complexity.
- Quality control and packing. Inspection, packing and fumigation.
- Sea freight and customs. Transit time depends on the destination port.
Where projects lose time
Most delays happen before production even starts: late drawing approvals, changes after the prototype, or fabric that arrives late. Fixing the design and materials early is the single best way to protect your opening date.
Phased deliveries
For larger hotels, splitting deliveries by floor or area lets installation start sooner. We can plan production in the same order as your site schedule.
Tell us your target on-site date when you request a quote, and we will propose a schedule that works backwards from it.
