Tarkett Streamlines Sales Support for FEMA and Emergency Response
The needs of healthcare and government contractors are rapidly changing in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and Tarkett is committed serving the needs of its customers and communities in these challenging times. Through our own internal responses to this health crisis, Tarkett has positioned itself to safely continue providing flooring solutions that are well suited to address needs such as infection control and rapid occupancy.
“The pandemic has obviously impacted the construction industry in profound ways. We want our contracting and installation partners to know that we’re here for you,” said Rich Padgett, account executive for government sales for Tarkett North America. “As you work to keep our communities safe and our healthcare and government facilities responsive to changing needs, we’ll be here to provide solutions on your timeline.”
Through the following adjustments to its normal operations, Tarkett is equipped to support FEMA’s COVID-19 approach of preservation, allocation, acceleration and expansion:
• Preservation: Continually monitoring inventories of resilient and soft surface products, prioritizing those inventories for the immediate need
• Allocation: Allocating those inventories once immediate needs are determined
• Acceleration: Directing manufacturing resources to produce those products where inventories are being depleted
• Expansion: Increasing manufacturing capabilities to meet the increased demand as this pandemic continues its aggressive path
To discuss your healthcare and government flooring needs in response to the pandemic, please contact Rich Padgett at (757) 810-8893 or Richard.Padgett@tarkett.com. In addition, Tarkett’s dedicated concierge hotline for FEMA contractors and other emergency response organizations can be reached at (440) 903-4698.
