🛠️ BEAMM Case Study – Compass Hotel by Margaritaville (Pigeon Forge, TN)
🏨 Project Snapshot
- Client:Â New Design Concepts (NDC)
 - Property: Compass Hotel by Margaritaville – Pigeon Forge, Tennessee
 - Type:Â Construction-phase freight assist
 - Duration:Â 5 working days
 - Crew:
- 4-person BEAMM team
 - 3 team members from Smarter Furnishings
 - Contractor support from general trades on-site
 
 
đźš§ Project Context
The Compass Hotel was still under construction when BEAMM arrived. Our role wasn’t to install furniture or stage guest rooms — it was to get extremely heavy freight off the trucks and into units quickly, safely, and efficiently.
Most items exceeded 300 pounds per piece — this wasn’t box lifting. It was a high-intensity, physical job in the middle of a live jobsite.
đź§± Field Conditions
- Building still under active construction
 - No elevators online yet
 - Hallways cluttered with tools and materials
 - BEAMM worked around general contractors and crews on deadline
 - Worked long hours moving oversized furniture without powered lifts
 
đź’Ş What BEAMM Delivered
- Unloaded and staged hundreds of pounds of freight daily across five days
 - Managed high-value furniture in active construction zones without damage
 - Coordinated placement with on-site GC to keep things flowing
 - Helped identify damaged or missing freight in real time
 - Supported packaging breakdown as needed, though final trash removal was handled after our exit
 
BEAMM wasn’t there to decorate. We were there to move heavy product under pressure — fast, clean, and safe.
âś… The Outcome
- Full truck unloads completed daily with no rework or delay
 - Inventory delivered to units accurately
 - Zero damage incidents reported
 - BEAMM exited the project with all assigned units prepped for follow-on install teams
