🛠️ 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
