Background: You are a Relationship Manager for Seneca Estates, a prestigious, family-owned winery based in France. Each year 7 hotels across Canada host a Wine Expo, on the same night, at which collectors and high end restauranteurs have the first opportunity to taste and purchase. This year, to mark an anniversary, Seneca Estates, will present a gift of wine to all attendees at each of these highly anticipated events. Customized labels and bottles were created just for this occasion. Venue Cities: Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa, Winnipeg, Calgary, Edmonton and Vancouver Situation: The previous Relationship Manager was in the role for many years and established a strong, trusted relationship with the hotels. You are not new to Seneca Estates, but you are new to this Account. Four weeks before the event date, the wine was delivered to French Export customs. Feeling confident, you advise each hotel accordingly: 1 week processing at French Export customs - 1 week processing at Canadian Import customs - 1 week to deliver via truck to all hotels - 1 week to spare. A week later, you are notified by French customs that the paperwork does not match the shipment. It seems the warehouse at Seneca Estates bundled it with another shipment meant to go to New York. The entire shipment has to be returned to Seneca and re-packed. This will take another week. You are left with 2 weeks before the event. This is barely enough time to airfreight to Toronto and clear customs. Contractually, you are responsible to get the wine shipment to each hotel. Seneca's Distribution Centre near Toronto co-ordinates delivery. The original plan was to transport the wine, by truck, to each hotel. The wine may arrive in Toronto on time, but will not make it to the other hotels based on the original plan. Hotel Event Managers are emailing you for an update on the status of the wine shipments.
