Fleks helps with event planning

Attending an event leaves a lasting impression on you - the atmosphere, the music and the fun with friends. Planning an event also often leaves a lasting impression, but not always a positive one. After all, it is not easy. Security guards, bar staff, cleaners, first aiders, technicians, photographers and box office staff are all needed for good events. In order to manage the presence of these staff, good staff planning is necessary. How do you ensure that the planning for your festival staff is a success?

Planning: the challenge of every event 

Planning your personnel, or workforce management, for festivals and other events is always a challenge. Staff often does not come from the same company. The photographer is probably a self-employed person, the bar staff comes from a catering agency and other staff may come from an agency. A huge pile of stakeholders from many different locations. 

‍

Another challenge is that a festival does not always go as expected. Especially in the Netherlands, the weather is a very important factor in the success of your festival. A bad forecast for the weekend can cost you some visitors. So how do you respond to this last-minute problem? The scheduling or cancellation of bar staff at festivals is crucial.

Good planning of your event staff is necessary, but can take up a lot of time and effort. An easy-to-use staff management application can be a very welcome lifesaver here.
