Logistics Planning · Operating Dossierv · 2026.02

The blueprintbehind the room.

Site recon, run-of-show, vendor discipline, freight, and a production control desk — architected as a single operating document, not a stack of loose deliverables.

Dossier · 6 sections

Every discipline — documented, signed, delivered.

Scroll through the operating dossier. Each section is what actually goes into your program plan — nothing marketing-facing.

§01
Section · Site Recon

Recon the venue before contracts get signed.

Load-in doors, service corridors, power drops, sight lines. We walk the room before you commit — with a two-page site report and a red-flag list in your inbox 48 hours later.

Deliverables
  • Site inspection & load-in walk-through
  • Room capacity & fire-code validation
  • Power, rigging, and network audit
  • Loading dock & freight elevator survey
  • ADA & accessibility path mapping
  • 48-hour red-flag report
§02
Section · Timeline

One timeline. Every stakeholder. One truth.

Run-of-show, load-in plan, and rehearsal grid — all versioned, all timestamped, all in a shared workspace. Vendors work off the same beat as your executive team.

Deliverables
  • Master run-of-show (minute-by-minute)
  • Load-in / strike timeline
  • Rehearsal & cue-to-cue schedule
  • Speaker & VIP itinerary sheets
  • Live change-log with owner + timestamp
  • Print-ready pocket schedules for staff
§03
Section · Vendors

Contract discipline — from RFP to sign-off.

Every vendor scoped, quoted, and held to a service-level standard. Change orders documented, insurance certificates on file, and one point of accountability on our side.

Deliverables
  • RFPs · A/V, catering, staffing, security
  • Bid comparisons with negotiated terms
  • COI & insurance verification
  • Change-order tracking & approvals
  • Vendor call-sheets & load-in bibles
  • Post-event vendor scorecards
§04
Section · Freight & Flow

Boxes in, badges on — attendee flow architected end-to-end.

Signage plans, wayfinding, freight tracking, and attendee-flow modeling — so the room breathes at scale and nobody backs up at the door.

Deliverables
  • Freight & shipping consolidation
  • Signage & wayfinding plans (printed + digital)
  • Attendee-flow & queue modeling
  • Coat check, storage, and lost-and-found ops
  • Show-floor drayage & load-in staging
  • Trash, recycling & sustainability plan
§05
Section · On-Site Ops

A radio net on the floor — and a director in the wings.

Certified directors on comms, a live production control desk, and pre-scripted contingency binders. When something moves, we already had a playbook for it.

Deliverables
  • Radio net · production, security, transport
  • Production control desk & show-caller
  • Contingency playbook (weather, medical, IT)
  • Backstage & green-room management
  • Registration desk & credential control
  • Nightly ops debrief + next-day pivots
§06
Section · Wrap & Report

Strike is a discipline. So is the debrief.

Bags out, floors cleared, invoices reconciled. Then a full post-mortem — what to repeat, what to retire — delivered in one packaged report.

Deliverables
  • Strike & load-out coordination
  • Vendor final-billing reconciliation
  • Damage / incident documentation
  • Post-event survey aggregation
  • Executive read-out deck
  • Playbook refresh for next program
Operating Principles

The four rules that make the day feel inevitable.

Principle · 01

One accountable owner per line.

Every deliverable has a name next to it. Vendor drops the ball? We do, too.

Principle · 02

Documented before it happens.

Playbooks, run-sheets, and change logs — versioned, signed, distributed.

Principle · 03

Radio-tested. Rehearsed.

Comms, cues, and contingencies drilled the day before doors open — always.

Principle · 04

Debrief is the deliverable.

The last page of the report is the first page of the next program.
