24-7 Division
Port calls, fuel and air movements, arranged from one desk.
One coordinator, any hour, wherever the operation runs.
We coordinate port calls, fuel, air movements, land transport and base support for relief organisations, government agencies, defence ministries and sail training programmes. One point of contact for the whole operation.
Who we work for
Three sectors, planned the same way
The operations differ. The discipline does not: one point of contact, suppliers checked before they are used, and an account you can audit line by line.
-
Humanitarian and emergency response
Deployment kits, cold chain, water and shelter for relief agencies and non-governmental organisations. Routes close overnight in this work, and replanning them is our job, not yours.
-
Defence and government
Port calls, fuel, air movements and base support for navies, defence ministries and government agencies. One coordinator holds the operation, from berth booking to final invoice.
-
Training deployments
Multi-port itineraries, cadet movements and ceremonial support for sail training ships and instruction cruises. One coordinator holds the operation, from first port to home port.
What we coordinate
Seven areas, one point of contact
Each area is run by people who work in it. Where an operation crosses several, the coordination stays with us rather than passing to you.
- Naval and port supportPort calls for warships and state vessels, held as a single file
- Fuel and energy supplyMarine, aviation and ground fuel, supplied against a stated specification
- Aviation and air logisticsAir movements, ground handling and the permissions that allow them
- Land transport and base supportRoad, rail and multimodal movement, and running the site at the far end
- Humanitarian and emergency responseRelief logistics where the plan changes faster than the paperwork
- Reverse logistics and retrogradeBringing equipment home, and deciding what should not come home
- Training deployments and sail trainingLong training deployments planned as one voyage, not as a list of ports
Reaching us
An enquiry reaches a person, not a queue
Send the outline of the operation: ports or airfields, dates, and what has to move or be supplied. It goes to a coordinator who stays with the file until it closes.
If the requirement is still being scoped, that is the right time to talk. Costs are easier to hold down before the dates are fixed than after.

- Before you write
- Do not send classified, sensitive or operational information through this form. If the enquiry involves anything of that kind, write to us without it and we will agree how it should reach us.
How we work
The part that is easiest to skip
Government and humanitarian work is audited. Most of what follows is unglamorous, and it is the reason a file survives inspection two years later.
Facilitation payments are refused, and we say so to suppliers in writing before work starts. Where a port or an agent makes that difficult, the client is told. Quiet accommodation is how a compliance problem becomes the client's problem later, usually at the worst moment.
Every supplier and subcontractor is screened against sanctions lists before use, and screened again when ownership changes. The records stay available to the client rather than sitting in a file we hold.
Waste, fuel handling and vessel discharges follow the rules of the port and the flag, not the fastest route through them. Incidents are reported upward, including the ones that cost us time and money to report.
