2009 article: Saving US Taxpayers Money Stimulates a Joint Venture Between The Sandi Group and Safe Ports

CHARLESTON, S.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Sandi Group and Safe Ports are experts in working in emerging markets. Their Chairmen and CEOs, Dr. Rubar Sandi and Ms. Lucy Duncan have known each other for nearly twenty years. Independently they have overcome daunting challenges to deliver large scale projects successfully.

Safe Ports and TSG have been inspired by the US military’s renewed focus to streamline costs through more joint planning, coordination, integration and synchronization of logistics across all branches: the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps. They decided to join forces and recently established a Joint Venture called Safe Ports TSG in order to work to find innovative new ways to support the war fighter’s logistics needs.

The Sandi Group is a multi-disciplined, international company with operating entities around the world. TSG and its subsidiaries are global contractors providing security planning, management, training and personnel to large scale, complex projects. TSG has been engaged in Iraq and Afghanistan since 2003 supporting US operations.

Safe Ports, a Woman owned Small Business, based in Charleston, SC, is engaged in senior level US and international government relations, risk assessment and security planning, defense logistics, including warehouse management, military specification packaging, transportation, equipment resets, and technology. Safe Ports also specializes in sophisticated port security and intermodal port development.

..Dr. Sandi is a well know international business leader. The US State Department asked him to join the Future of Iraq group for the post-Saddam reconstruction efforts in Iraq; he is credited with authorship of the Phoenix Plan which is a comprehensive economic development, social and political blueprint for Iraq. He has written many papers relating to security, logistics, economic development, fiscal reform and financial institutional policy for the future of Iraq.

..The Joint Venture is headquartered in Washington, DC with operations offices in Charleston, South Carolina and Amman, Jordan.
