TNT Express has delivered 10 tonnes of Sony broadcasting equipment in less than seven hours for Showtime Arabia, the Dubai-based television network.
The delivery to Showtime’s regional headquarters in Dubai Media City was managed through TNT’s special services department, which offers tailor-made solutions for unusual customer requirements, without restrictions in size, weight or global location.
“This is the second time Sony Professional Solutions has called TNT special services to undertake the difficult task of delivering equipment, which includes servers, furniture, cabling and other media apparatus, to the studio,” said Dirosh Amarasinghe, product manager, TNT special services.
“The large, heavy and expensive equipment was delivered using a specially contracted telescopic forklift, through a window on the first floor, as no other entrance could accommodate the dimensions of the consignment,” he added.
TNT has a dedicated special services team at every office within its global network, with separate units within the department, such as time special handling and time critical delivery.
“Since the Gulf launch of TNT Special Services in 2004, it has become the company’s fastest growing service with a two-fold increase in business,” said Amarasinghe.
