Dave m Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 wot it says We are looking to create a one size fits all technical requirement document that we can send out for all sorts of events We had an old version but I thought a couple of examples might be handy to inspire the new version~? thanks
Shez Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 I'm probably misunderstanding the question but I can't see how one single document can cover "all sorts of events" - is every event the same? If every event is different, surely they need different documentation?
MarkPAman Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 What he said ^^^^ How about posting your old version so we can see the sort of thing you mean.
Dave m Posted October 22, 2015 Author Posted October 22, 2015 yes, it's a multi purpose venue, but often there is miscommunication about expectations. Back in the day we used to have a set of documents/forms that we could send out to a prospective client/hirer that listed various questions that would help the tech crew we would prefer a multi purpose document that could be filled in by the external party that gives an idea of the need for sound/lighting /projection etc. several places that I have worked had similar. kind of a reverse rider I guess.
Shez Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 A venue tech spec then. You can download them from many venue's websites. We have a questionnaire / spec that gets sent out from one of my venues - I'll send over a copy when I get five minutes.
Dave m Posted October 22, 2015 Author Posted October 22, 2015 yeah, we used to call them Tech -Rec's ( Technical Requirements) we also plan to do a building spec one but what I am after is the questionnaire to get us the info
Bryson Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Here's the one I use: it doesn't cover every eventuality, but gets us a general shape of what they're planning. It always gets followed up with a phone call. https://www.dropbox.com/s/b1mkqssakxayvgy/centennial%20tech%20show%20sheet%20v5.docx?dl=0
dsharp7th Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Make it as easy as possible to fill in both on a computer (word, excel or rtf over pdf) or by hand. Try filling in one yourself. (Bryson's otherwise good example is a bit tight for handwriting space in the schedule section). And if someone has gone to the rare effort of supplying all the information already in carefully worded emails and useful attachments, don't annoyingly insist that they repeat all their work by filling in the form.
