01
A disclosed commercial model
Management fee, fee plus disclosed net costs, or a stated margin — written down before sourcing starts, with any supplier commission disclosed and credited.
Comparable, auditable, defensible
Procurement & Finance
You are judged on whether the commercial arrangement stands up to scrutiny afterwards — not on how the gala looked.
Your side of the event
What you are judged on.
Procurement’s problem with event agencies is rarely price. It is that the pricing is not comparable, the scope moves without a record, and the final invoice arrives with items nobody can trace to an approval.
- 1Whether the tender produced genuinely comparable bids
- 2Whether the final cost matches the approved cost
- 3Whether every variation has a written approval behind it
- 4Whether supplier terms carry acceptable risk
- 5Whether the data supports next year’s negotiation
What we give you
Four things, specifically for your job.
We work the way a procurement function would design it if asked: structured RFPs, normalised comparisons, disclosed commercial model, written change approvals and a closing account that reconciles line by line.
02
Normalised bid comparison
Every proposal restated on the same basis: net rate, service charge, tax, genuine inclusions and the cancellation curve at 90, 60 and 30 days.
03
Change control with a paper trail
Variations quoted, accepted in writing with a name and timestamp, and only then committed. Nothing absorbed quietly and argued about later.
04
A reconciled closing account
Line by line against contracted scope, master bills checked against the contract, variances explained rather than netted off.
