PPG expands PPG CONCIERGE PROGRAM service to glazing contractors

An exclusive service designed to ensure supply-chain success for large, complex or high-profile commercial construction projects, the PPG Concierge Program enables glazing contractors to leverage PPG's extensive experience in managing multifaceted glass construction projects.Margie Hahn, PPG architectural services manager, said most projects, even very large ones, can be handled by PPG-certified fabricators through PPG's standard inventory and supply-chain approach.The PPG Concierge Program, however, is designed to help with certain large projects that require extensive production and logistics coordination.

'For buildings with atypical glass configurations or non-standard glass components, the PPG Concierge Program provides customized coordination through Julie Giba, our dedicated program manager,' she explained. 'Julie aligns our inventory and production, provides priority access to specified glass products, reserves ordered items and manages production scheduling to help our customers meet the logistical demands of complex projects.'
