- Hunter Douglas - Moving Mountains
An unknown guest count ranging between 2,500 and 3,000 guests arriving over several days, no complete manifest to be found prior to or throughout the program, chartered group transportation and evening shuttle services scheduled to fourteen hotels spread around the Denver metro area without any confirmation of actual numbers, not to mention iced bottled water for each guest on board each transportation move…
Most companies would find the prospect of this program daunting, however; our company embraced the challenge head on and pulled out all the stops in preparing for the unknown to make sure it was a complete success.
