CASE STUDY: Painting Services for High-Volume National Retailer

Background

CS Hudson was engaged by a large national clothing retailer to complete a time-sensitive interior painting project for 100 of their West Coast locations. The retailer faced a year-end budget crunch and needed to complete the project within a tight 30-day window before the end of the fiscal year, requiring swift and efficient execution to avoid any impact on their daily operations.

Challenge

With only 30 days remaining in the year, the retailer had to complete an extensive facility improvement project within budget constraints, specifically focusing on interior painting across 100 locations. The short timeline posed a significant logistical challenge, as all work had to be completed efficiently without disrupting normal store operations during the busy holiday season. Coordinating the use of lock boxes and after hours staffing was critical.

Solution

CS Hudson leveraged our in-house superintendents and traveling crews, along with our extensive network of vetted vendors and specialty contractors, to efficiently tackle the project. We quickly sourced skilled painting professionals, arranged flexible scheduling, and coordinated each location's requirements to ensure seamless completion. Our team organized a structured plan to maximize efficiency across the 100 locations, working closely with the client to maintain uninterrupted daily operations.

Result

Through our rapid mobilization and meticulous coordination, CS Hudson achieved the following results:

On-Time Project Completion: All 100 locations were completed within the 30-day timeframe, enabling the client to stay on schedule and within their end-of-year budget.

Uninterrupted Store Operations: Despite the large-scale nature of the project. daily store operations continued smoothly without disruption, preserving a positive shopping experience for customers.

Client Satisfaction and Budget Adherence: The client successfully wrapped up their facility improvement spending for the year without exceeding budget constraints, meeting both financial and operational goals.
