• Healthcare mid-course correction - Per Colby's feedback following his review of quotes provided, I submitted a request to Maxwell Health for assistance with compiling health care and benefit packages.
• Confirmed with Cloverdale Manufacturing that steel order is ready for pick up Monday (September 9).
• Confirmed with Unishippers and Freightquote prior bids. Unishippers's bid increased and Freightquote's bid remained the same. Unishippers expected to source a truck within 2-3 days. Freightquote expected to source a truck within 1 day and promised to report status on Monday (September 9). Freightquote sourced a truck same day, Friday (September 6).
• Provided complete invoice payment to Cloverdale - challenging due to lack of internet in Erie, PA (current location) - significant note: Cloverdale no longer accepts PayPal payments, only wire transfers
• Freightquote followed up with Bill of Lading and coordinated with Cloverdale regarding logistics details. No need to coordinate between the shipping broker and vendor.
• Confirmed with incoming DPV, arriving Wednesday or Thursday week of September 9 - POV
