About Us

Complete Solutions.

T4 provides complete packages of office furniture and furnishings for international projects. Working primarily in resource challenged countries, T4 offers classic end-to-end supply chain solutions. It starts with the determination and refining of the customer's furnishings requirements and ends with the outfitting of the customer's facility using T4's crews.  

T4  provides test fits, space plans, and  layouts for the customer's critique and approval. Complete specifications and budgets are approved and executed. T4 procures the package of furniture, ships it to its network of international warehouses for inspection, labeling, documentation and packaging, and loads the products into ocean containers for onward shipment to the destination country. T4 organizes and coordinates the delivery of the shipment to the project  with its custom clearing agents and freight forwarders in the destination country. T4 insures the furniture or equipment is delivered to the project site, unpacked, positioned, and properly assembled to the customer's satisfaction. 

Challenging Environments.

T4 geographical speciality is Africa, the Caribbean, and Central Asia. While the company has completed many projects throughout Europe and the Far East,  many customers chooseT4 because their project is in resource challenged locations where conventional vendors lack the needed experience and managerial expertise to effectively perform.

Among T4's challenging projects was the supply, delivery, and outfitting of ten modular clinics in newly independent South Sudan for the Southern People's Liberation Army (SPLA). The clinics provided family health and HIV treatment care to the soldiers and their families.

The African Development Bank (AfDB) turned to T4 to outfit its country offices throughout Africa including a particularly challenging project to outfit the new Central African Republic country office within six weeks of the order. The AfDB chose T4 from among its many vendors because the Bank knew that T4 was the one company that could handle the logistical challenges as well as the manufacturing constraints to successfully outfit the office with a quality European-made package of furniture and furnishings in time for the official opening. 

Appropriate Strategies.

T4 is distinguished from its competitors by the operational knowledge it acquired from years of working in developing countries. T4 combines local contractors and local expertise with its own technical expertise provided by T4's international expatriate managers and technical supervisors. The result is a  project implementation approach that is both cost-effective and rapid. T4 recognizes that local labor is eager to learn and if given the chance, with the right direction and supervision, will execute challenging and complex tasks effectively and efficiently. Over the years, T4 has employed a consistent methodology of deploying cost-effective local labor with a tightly managed and supervised single task technical approach.

Experience.

T4 was formed in 2005 as a transport intermediary and non-vessel-owning common carrier.

With its September 2011 acquisition of a 25-year-old USA-based furniture and furnishings company, Nova International,  T4 can rightfully state that it has installed furniture in over 140 countries. 

​T4 also acquired Nova's  modular man camp business with man camps built in remote locations in Mauritania, Senegal, Mali, Burkina Faso, Darfur, Sudan, Guinea, Kyrgyzstan, Guatemala, Honduras, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, Indonesia, Kuwait, Iraq, the Arctic Circle (Nunavut), Canada, and three projects in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. One DRC project involved the manufacture and construction of an 18 one-, two- and three- bedroom houses in a mining company  housing estate in Kolwezi, DR Congo for senior management staff. 

T4 has the needed combination of product expertise and management experience in international project and logistics management, making it a formidable partner for its customers.

About Our Product and Project Focus

A CONTRACT FURNITURE PROVIDER AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT COMPANY FOR INTERNATIONAL FF&E PROJECTS.
T4 is an international contract furniture dealer supporting international furniture projects worldwide with furniture supply, interior design, shipping, logistics, installation and project management. 

Formed by Mr. Tim H Rose in 2005 to provide logistics support services for Mr. Rose's other company, Nova International, Inc. In 2011, Mr. Rose consolidated Nova International's operations into T4 to create a new fully integrated, single company providing both supply and design services with logistics and project management.

T4 works in challenging and typically underserved locations in Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, the Middle East, and Europe. T4 provides packages of furniture and furniture management solutions for projects with complex parameters. T4 has shipped, delivered, and installed office furniture packages to 140 countries for diplomatic, military, commercial, and international organizational customers. 

MAN CAMPS AND MODULAR BUILDING SOLUTIONS FOR CHALLENGING ENVIRONMENTS.
T4 provides modular building solutions for remote "man camps" in challenging international locations, primarily for the mining, oil, and gas industry. T4's modular building solutions range from the complex to the simple with a project focus limited to camps up to 200 persons.  We design, supply, and construct "man camps" and remote modular building based accommodation for industry, government,  and international organizations.  The typical T4 camp typically includes staff accommodation, toilet / ablution, dining, recreation, administrative, and medical buildings, laundry, dry storage, refrigerated storage, parameter security and site protection, and the provision for power generation, water treatment and waste water disposal. 

INTERNATIONAL LOGISTICS AND TRANSPORT MANAGEMENT.
T4 began as an NVOCC and 3rd party transport intermediary. T4 continues to provide international logistics management services for its customers' projects. T4 will arrange for and manage all international shipping, by sea and air, and customs documentation, clearance, delivery and warehousing. Africa and other developing areas continues to be T4's logistics focus. 

OIL REMEDIATION AND PIPELINE SECURITY. 
In response to requests from key customers, T4 has recently become involved in designing and implementing oil remediation and oil pipeline security solutions for complex and challenging environments. Drawing heavily from the lessons learned from its man camp work, T4 employs the same labor intensive approaches as used in its modular building methodologies. T4 also recognizes that remediation and security can only be achieved with appropriate community involvement and sensitivity to the social requirements of the most affected populations. Application of new technologies including the use of commercial drones is also key to the T4 security approach.

A 32 YEAR HISTORY OF COMBINED PERFORMANCE. 
T4 was formed in 2005 as a 3rd Party international logistics intermediary and Non Vessel Owning Common Carrier (NVOCC). In 2011, T4 significantly broadened its business by absorbing the international contract furniture projects and modular buildings business of a 26 year old Washington, DC-based contract furniture company, Nova International, which supplied furniture to the US Government for its overseas diplomatic and military missions, and a modular building business providing solutions to the oil and gas industries. With the absorption of the quarter century old company, T4 can rightfully claim a combined 30 year history of international performance.
