VISION RELOCATION GROUP CORPORATE INFORMATION
CORPORATE INFORMATION
VISION Relocation Group® challenges the relocation status quo. No same old solutions--just the best alternatives for global relocation management. Our service is better because we have better financial, human, and technological resources. And our imaginative and experienced people focus on excellent execution!
o Financial Strength and Sensibility — VISION's parent company is a well-capitalized, privately-held logistics and moving company. While financial strength is critical, you also want to know that your partner understands and competently practices the financial aspects of the global relocation business. VISION Relocation Group is a trusted partner who ensures that the financial and tax applications of relocation transactions are handled with the highest level of scrutiny and detail.
o Focus on Consulting Services — Our financial strength and the commitment from our parent company for continued growth enables VISION to provide truly customized programs that specifically address the needs of each client. We consult with you to determine your global mobility strategy and work with you to develop the service delivery structure that works best for you.
o "Service First" Philosophy — We know that in order to succeed we need to keep service as our top priority
- FOREVER. This "service first" philosophy is not just words on a page-it's engrained in our culture. We hire the best people in the industry who are not only experienced in global relocation, but have demonstrated creativity and a drive to succeed. We believe that if we are employee-focused, our employees will remain client-focused.
CORPORATE HISTORY
VISION was founded 25 years ago as the corporate services division of The Long & Foster Companies, the largest privately owned real estate and financial services group in the United States. To better reflect our full-service global relocation capabilities and sector expertise as well as address the growing marketplace need for outsourced program management, VISION Relocation Group, LLC (“VISION”) was formed in 2005 as a wholly owned, independently operated subsidiary of Long & Foster. This fundamental change enabled the company to not only focus its considerable energies and talents on the efficient execution of client relocation programs and drive service excellence but, also, operate free from constraining bureaucratic processes and boardroom politics.
The company then expanded, opening its North Eastern Client Service Center outside Philadelphia, PA and forming a Hong Kong subsidiary, VISION Relocation Group Limited, which acquired ReloCenter in 2006 solidifying operations in the Asia Pacific Region. Through The Vision Alliance®, we maintain a Client Service Center in the UK that serves our clients’ needs throughout Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA). Our breadth of owned operations and strategic partnerships offer comprehensive relocation solutions in more than 160 countries.
In 2011, VISION was acquired by the Secor Group, Inc., a leading global logistics and mobility services company, as part of a strategy to provide an integrated suite of scalable relocation and mobility services to a broad spectrum of clients. This synergistic relationship grants us access to a global mobility network and specialized services portfolio, but preserves our right to operate independently. Under this structure, we can continue to be vigilant stewards of our clients’ most precious resources – their transferees and bottom lines – while meeting any relocation need.
For more than five decades, VISION has provided world-class relocation services to a variety of corporate, government and non-profit clients.
Operating for years in an environment of favorable economic and real estate conditions, many relocation firms have become complacent and unimaginative; ill-equipped to help their clients succeed in a more challenging business climate. At VISION Relocation Group®, we are committed to bringing something different to our clients: a truly consultative, flexible approach to relocation that reflects today’s client needs and market realities…we call it Relocation Imagination®.

Commercial Because of the dissolution by the Surface Transportation Board of the Household Goods
Carriers Bureau tariff known as the 400N, this can no longer be used as a standard of comparison. Each mover is required to file their own tariff and while many say they will follow the "format" of the 400N, the former pricing standard is no longer uniform so comparisons across movers cannot be made and any quoted discount becomes meaningless.
The American Moving and Storage Association provides a software based rates and charges version of a 400-NG tariff that eliminates this issue and does provide standardized comparison, uniform service guarantees, committed transit times and a valid method of measuring cost savings.
