Relocation

LAMA GROUP is a team of professionals with over 10 years’ experience in relocation processes in Miami as well as in other destinations. LAMA GROUP provides logistics support to relocated executives and their families throughout the complete process.

The success of an international executive relies not only in his or her professional abilities and work performance, but also on the integration and adaptation of the entire family to the new social and cultural surroundings. It is known that the happiness of the family members is key for the professional to achieve his goals in his new position. LAMA GROUP offers customized relocation packages for companies and individuals, which considers the whole family needs to help them settle smoothly in the new city.

Globalization has caused the work industry as well as the dynamics between employee and employer to change. Nowadays the activities of most companies are not only local based. They want to position themselves in bigger markets and have presence where they see greater opportunities of growth. therefore, relocating their executives or offices to the targeted economy is a need in these days for expanding business.

En este proceso, el 69% de los profesionales lleva consigo a su familia, y de acuerdo al informe “Tendencias Globales de Movilidad Internacional”, elaborado por CIGNA, en colaboración con  The National Foreign Trade Council, el servicio más valorado por las personas que comienzan una asignación es la reubicación – así lo afirma un 60% de los encuestados.

Our goal is to facilitate the transition for all family members, supporting them in all phases from finding a home, to choosing schools, familiarization with the area and documentation.

Familiarization

Understand your destination and be informed is key for the executive and the family transfer to be successful. Most people coordinate a preliminary familiarization trip to obtain an overview of the new city, which is relevant to make the right decisions. In this stage we help clients to understand the essence of different neighborhoods to then better choose a house, schools and a lifestyle.

Our goal is to comprehend the customer tastes and specific needs. Based on this we can show and propose the most suitable areas, explain the main characteristic of the neighborhood as well as the advantages and attractions that it offers. This is a good way to get to know the environment and culture of the area you might want to live in. Discussing the future family dynamics, such as school options, transportation, club memberships, etc, are important details that should be talked through for the transfer to be successful. This process can last few hours or few days, depending on the depth of service chosen.

To assist in the process of familiarization with the new city, we provide services such:

R
