How It Works

From Call to Coverage in Four Steps

The terms in writing before anyone is recruited.

1

You Call or Submit

Call 770-873-9004 or send the form. Tell us when, where and how many.

2

You Get the Terms in Writing

Per-engagement: the Rapid Deployment Agreement, the fee and a 50% deposit in one email from [email protected]. Sign and pay online. Contracted clients skip this step.

3

The Clock Starts

Deposit and fee arrived, agreement signed: we recruit and brief your crew. Not before.

4

Staff Arrives Ready

Briefed on the property, in TWF uniform. A TWF leader checks in before the shift ends.

Pricing

The rapid deployment fee, published in full

Only for per-engagement (one-off) bookings inside 48 hours of call time. One fee per deployment, sized to the staffing you book. Same service on both paths.

  • Step 1: 48 hours out25%Inside 48 hours of call time. The greater of $150 or 25% of the booked staffing.
  • Step 2: 24 hours out40%Inside 24 hours of call time. 40% of the booked staffing.
  • Step 3: 9 or more peopleCustom9 or more people inside 48 hours. A person calls you within the hour.

Booked staffing means your market's per-engagement card rates for the hours you book, captain included. The fee sits on top of that, and the 50% deposit still applies.

The fine print: if plans change
  • One-off bookings: the 50% deposit comes back if you cancel more than 72 hours before call time, and is forfeited inside 72 hours.
  • Inside 24 hours the full booking is billed at the card rates for the booked hours, with the 4-hour minimum.
  • Headcount reductions inside 72 hours are billed as booked.
  • Contracted clients: a cancellation inside 24 hours bills at the 4-hour minimum.
