The Work

Scale, complexity, and what we did when the plan changed.

Four project stories. Each story shows the size of the work, how long it ran, the challenge, and how we handled it.

Three phases of high-volume freight to a remote site, with each new phase awarded on the strength of the one before it

The complication

Rural road weight limits, narrow access and strict municipal routing in phase one. Heavy rain and a ten-day weather shutdown in phase two. Twenty-four-hour factory release notice and tight coordination in phase three. Each phase was awarded only on the performance of the one before.

What we did

Custom driver instructions and pre-trip route planning. Hold-and-release deliveries with freight diverted to yards during the shutdown, coordinated daily with the site. Forecast-based carrier planning to meet 24-hour releases. Deliveries stayed in sequence through all three phases.

Safe Harbor modules stored and documented across eight warehouses for more than five years

The complication

Modules procured under Safe Harbor provisions had to be picked up from many suppliers, consolidated, and stored long term in high-demand Northeastern markets, with documentation that would still hold up years later.

What we did

A scalable Safe Harbor storage program: warehouses secured in eight cities across four states, dedicated zones segregated by SKU and project, serial tracking, timestamped intake per truckload, and an online repository of every record. The same practices now apply to projects we manage today.

225 oversized BESS and PCS units stored seven months, then delivered in strict 4:1 sequence

The complication

Units over 80,000 pounds needed reinforced ground and organized staging lanes for seven months of storage. Installation then demanded 15 loads a day in a strict four-to-one BESS-to-PCS order, matched to onsite crane schedules, over a 21-day window.

What we did

Site preparation and ground reinforcement for the storage yard, positioned near the project to cut final-mile cost. Multi-axle step decks and RGNs matched to each unit. A two-turn-per-day routing strategy and a dedicated project team holding the sequence. The full 21-day schedule completed without a delay.

An outsourced logistics operation across five states for about seven years

The complication

A North American utility-scale developer and EPC needed tighter inventory accuracy for the components its sites depended on, and reliable deliveries of torque tubes, c-posts and modules to remote locations.

What we did

The company outsourced logistics for several key projects to One Source: dedicated storage in Indiana and Kentucky for millions of metal components, and transport of those parts plus modules from storage in Arizona, Washington and Utah directly to job sites.
