Event logistics Event Logistics Our event logistics planning process is simple. Work the creative concept through the realities of the physical site, budget constraints and the consideration and concerns of all suppliers, to deliver a seamless event, that is safe, and over delivers on clients expectations. The bigger the event, the more logistics. The more public the event, again, the more logistics to be considered. The logistics for each event varies with the events nature. It can include detailed planning of procurement, storage, distribution, tracking, disposal and clean up. Even site rectification can be a major part of large events. Generally you have to return the site to the condition in which you found it, and cover all costs in doing so in your budgeting and reporting system.

If you don't have a traffic plan, plan to fail! Traffic management is critical for public events, festivals, family days, sporting events, trade shows, expos and so on. In this instance you must be concerned with both vehicular and pedestrian traffic. Safety wardens need to be present for both traffic types.
