TMS was selected as Mowasalat’s partner in 2019, and this engagement culminated recently with transportation of the final passengers for FIFA’s World Cup held in Doha, Qatar at the end of 2022. The transportation plan was a three-year collaborative effort between Mowasalat, Qatar’s premier transportation provider, and TMS Global Events, successfully delivering a transport program that included several features that the global transportation community has never seen before.
The Process
To address these challenges, TMS developed and implemented a sophisticate transportation strategy:
