Move Management

See Move Management in action

See how Santa Fe Move Management can give your organisation greater visibility and control across international employee moves.

    Santa Fe’s Move Management service provides independent oversight of employee moves from initiation through delivery.

    We manage quotations, supplier selection, coordination and financial controls within a process aligned to policy and programme requirements.

    Move Management gives HR and Global Mobility teams visibility across costs, timelines and supplier performance while reducing day-to-day administration.

    What Move Management does

    Move Management brings employee briefing, quotation comparison, supplier selection, coordination, shipment protection and invoice controls into one managed service. Dedicated Move Management Coordinators oversee each case and provide a consistent point of contact across the move lifecycle.

    Our teams operate independently from local Santa Fe Moving operations. This supports objective supplier selection and clear oversight of cost, quality, availability and performance.

    What Move Management covers

    Santa Fe’s Move Management service supports the activities most likely to affect move cost, timing and service quality:

    • Employee briefing and move initiation
    • Mover sourcing and quotation management
    • Structured quotation comparison and selection support
    • Move coordination from survey through delivery
    • Invoice auditing and payment management where required
    • Shipment protection enrolment and claims support
    • Supplier performance monitoring
    • Programme reporting across activity, cost and service quality

    Each case is managed through documented workflows aligned to client policy, agreed service levels and reporting requirements.

    How Move Management works

    Move Management begins when a case is initiated. A Move Management Coordinator confirms the requirements, briefs the employee and requests surveys and quotations from movers.

    Quotations are compared against agreed criteria such as cost, employee preference, availability and service capability. The coordinator reviews the outcome, supports mover selection and records the decision.

    For Classic and Premium services, Santa Fe coordinates packing, transit, delivery and follow-up while monitoring milestones and exceptions. Invoice controls and payment management apply according to the chosen service level.

    Digital workflows, automated communications and reporting provide visibility throughout the move process.

    Why Move Management matters

    International moves involve multiple suppliers, quotations, schedules and financial checks. Without structured oversight, HR and Global Mobility teams can lose visibility, spend more time coordinating activity and struggle to compare service performance across markets.

    Structured Move Management helps organisations:

    • Reduce day-to-day administration
    • Apply move policy consistently
    • Strengthen cost and supplier control
    • Maintain visibility across each relocation
    • Monitor employee experience and service performance

    Independent oversight supports clear decisions throughout the move process.
