Managing these organizations’ crew lodging and travel schedule in metro areas to remote shale locales. Crewfacilities.com was co-founded by Andrea Tsakanikas several years ago because she was disappointed in how corporations with mobile work forces were being overcharged for their lodging. Facilities are in the business of selling rooms and building revenue. They are not responsible to reach out to customers if they have rooms that were “no-shows,” early check outs, empty rooms and beds. Nor would they worry about overcharging their customers with higher rates, added rooms and nights, incidentals and more. CrewFacilities.com was born to manage all that for the customer, those with groups traveling.
Andrea Tsakanikas has built a team of qualified industry experts from many specialties to oversee the travel process for their clients. Owing to her decades of travel, management and consulting experience, Andrea Tsakanikas has been successful in consistently upgrading the travel process and the procedural requirements that are critical when moving personnel from location to location. Managing travel for work force personnel can be extremely time consuming, labor intensive and costly. When a crew is on the road for long periods, many factors play an important role – team efficiency, company overhead, accommodation standards, lodging proximity to the job site, team productivity and schedule timeliness and all contribute to the project’s success rate. With her team, Andrea Tsakanikas ensures the process and travel policy is managed to ensure this is the case. From streamlining administrative in-house labor required to manage travel, to narrowing down only the vetted facilities, at competitive rates, closest to the job site location. Moreover, the team also focuses on eliminating charges for empty rooms and unused beds throughout the reservation and ensures a budget-friendly travel cost.
