Offshore Oil Platform
A largely unexplored petroleum resource can be one of the country’s most significant economic opportunities, as long as there is sufficient funding to allow for the construction of state of the art drilling platforms.
- Why should contractors register on the Trust Management Services Inc. PREFERED CONTRACTORS data base?
The contractors on the list will be the only ones permitted to bid and or participate in the contracts that Trust Management Services Inc. are currently servicing and pursuing worldwide.
Further opportunity is offered to the contractors, suppliers and service companies who register, to choose the "partnering" option to co-join with local area companies where a project may be scheduled, or to achieve a new market area of interest.
- Why should contractors be interested in the projects that Trust Management Services Inc. is pursuing or currently servicing?
All contracts undertaken by Trust Management Services Inc. are long term, stable projects, commonly backed by the governments of the nations involved. These projects are aimed at improving the lives of the country's citizens as well as enhancing the economic well being of the nation in general. This translates to stability and a reliable income in the long term for contractors working with Trust Management Services Inc.
- By completing the Application Form and paying the required registration fee, is the company guaranteed a contract?
No, all contractors and suppliers will be provided with a listing of current and future projects and will be invited to enter the bid and tender process.
- Will companies other than those who have paid the registration fee and been accepted on to the register, be invited to bid on projects?
No, only those who have completed the application, paid the fee, been vetted and therefore been placed on the list of acceptable contractors, will be invited to bid on projects. Trust Management Services Inc. goes through an extensive vetting process to assure that contractor applicants are able to perform their required tasks to the highest standards of their particular industry. In other words we do not deal with unknown or off t he street contractors.
- How does being on the contractors register benefit the contractor?
Being on the Trust Management Services Inc. register of approved contractors affords the contractor the opportunity to bid on or acquire by request, only the best contracts. The full funding for the entire project is already in place before the project begins and therefore contractors do not face the usual delays or renegotiations that are so often a part of other jobs that the contractor might bid. Trust Management Services Inc. , through the project management firms selected, becomes the ultimate "Go To" source for any problems that arise on the project and the contractor is left to perform the work he is best equipped to do, with no distractions.
- Why does Trust Management Services Inc. charge fees up front to be registered with them as an approved contractor?
The vetting process that all contractor applicants must go through requires an investment by Trust Management Services Inc. of both time and personnel and the fee pays a portion of this amount incurred. This process, though expensive, assures the company that the contractors it employs are among the best in the industry and allows Trust Management Services Inc. to guarantee to their clients the standard of excellence for which they are renowned around the world. Trust Management Services simply cannot offer their contracts to the general public and then begin the vetting process, as that would be unnecessarily time consuming and prohibitively expensive. We therefore, choose to work with contractors who are confirmed to display the ability to perform excellent work, on time and on budget consistently.
- If, after being given the projects list and the contractor feels they can provide additional services, over and above those detailed in the application; will there be an additional fee?
No, one application and registration fee will be all that is required no matter how extensive the services are that the contractor requests to provide. Trust Management Services Inc. feels that any contactor should be allowed to participate to the utmost of their ability, in any and all areas that they should desire.
- What does the optional "Partnering" advantage mean to the contractors, suppliers and service companies?
If your company wishes to venture into regions where they have not completed work before, a great deal of time and money can be spent on establishing your company in this new region or country. By "Partnering" you will have a "helping hand" through this learning curve. Remember all participants are vetted through our process before they are introduced to you. We do NOT interfere with your business to business activities of your "Partnering" unless it s our reputation.
- Are there limitations on the number of areas and 'Partners' with whom we can be introduced?
Trust Management Services will, for the optional fee charged, introduce up to three areas and/or partners. If more partnering services are requested we will adapt to fulfill your request at an extra charge. We have contacts available around the world who have registered with us and "Partnering" has proven to be a major area of success.
- With whom would you "Partner" our firm?
If you are a contractor, you may require local area professionals, laborers, logistic assistance, translators, a partner in the same business to relate concerns, or many other services - maybe just a contact point agent to work with to arrange matters for you - your choice, just let us know and we will arrange the contacts for you. If you are a seller of supplies to a particular industry and are seeking a reliable selling "Partner" for distribution or as a selling agent, we can assist your request.
If you are a service company that requires a variety of explanations and clarifications before establishing permanently in a particular area or country, we assist with the introduction to a "Partner" who will help break open a new market frontier.
- Do you only "Partner" in areas where you have projects being funded?
No, we can "Partner" based on our contacts around the world, whether you are seeking new markets or strengthening for an anticipated market, or bidding on projects not involving ourselves, we will assist in the "Partnering" aspect for you.
- Is this service or "Partnering" of real value for our firm?
Ask yourself, if you are venturing into a "new" territory, what are the costs related to travel and employee time, developing associations and the gathering of "reliable" information? I am certain you will find our "Partnering" service of extremely high value in cutting both cost and time. The local knowledge that our out introduced contact provides, along with our vetting assurances that they follow the principals and values outlined on our website - combine to confirm that "partnering" offers real value!
