Transport for UN Agencies

Working with the UN system means operating inside its security framework, and our track record shows we can. Shani Travels has supported UN-system operations for two decades — including IOM's Afghan-elections out-of-country voting programme, earthquake-response movements for displaced persons, and the EU Election Observation Missions that deployed observers across every province of Pakistan.

UN transport requirements are specific, and our standing capability maps to them. Vehicles are GPS-tracked, comprehensively insured and maintained on documented schedules; communication equipment can be fitted to mission specification. Drivers are police-verified, defensively trained, and experienced in working alongside field security officers — check-ins, convoy procedures, no-go hours and route clearances are familiar practice, not new instructions.

Journey management runs through our 24/7 Operations Control Room: movement requests, tracking, and immediate escalation paths for incidents. Provincial reach through eight offices means agency sub-offices and field missions receive the same standard as Islamabad — with backup vehicles positioned so field plans hold.

For security-elevated movements, the B-6 armored fleet operates under the same account, driven by security-trained chauffeurs and coordinated with your security management team.

Administratively, we work within UN procurement processes — from RFQ responses to LTA-style arrangements — with itemised invoicing and complete registration documentation. Agencies can diligence us against named past deployments and speak to long-standing references.

If your agency or implementing partner is establishing or re-tendering a transport arrangement, we would welcome the opportunity to submit.
