EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Introduction

Sports events have evolved from the polite gatherings of the early twentieth century to

become major ventures in their own right. Leaving aside mega‐events: the Olympic

Summer and Winter Games, FIFA World Cup and UEFA Euro events, there are a large

number of mid‐level events requiring investment of money and expertise and involving

large numbers of people. It is for organisers of these events that this report has been

written. They are required to be experts in a large number of disciplines and to bring off a

show on a specific date with no second chances. They have a huge number of

stakeholders depending on them from sports federations and athletes to sponsors,

broadcasters, crowds and not forgetting the community hosting the event.

They have to contend with moving financial goalposts, press scrutiny and a bewildering

number of moving parts to keep an eye on. They will often need to recruit and lead a

large team or, possibly more difficult, select an external provider who will deliver the

event on their behalf. They will often have to pledge large sums of money or promise a

return to rights‐holders against uncertain outcomes only some of which are in their

control.

Finally event organisers face an increasing possibility that their event will be disrupted by

scandal or terror turning their hard work to dust overnight. It is the best job in the world

and one which some people put themselves through willingly again and again. But, at

times it is a thankless and lonely task with the event organiser in the position of whipping

boy being attacked from all sides. This report will not give all the answers, but it will

provide a sympathetic and practical guide to some of the main issues that will occupy

most organisers. It has been written by many with personal experience of the stresses and

strains; the highs and the lows.

Page 7: New Event Management for 3hd Media Costing and Analysis

Part One: Getting it Right from the Start

Many of the problems that event organisers face late on in the process of delivering the

show have their roots back at the inception and early stages of event planning. So, it is

without apology that we devote part one to the processes of setting things up to ensure a

greater likelihood of success. To do that we first set out a typology of events and deal

with some definitions. One of the frustrations often voiced by professionals in this field

concerns the constant reinvention of what should by now be standard processes. There

are differences between events, but they are often far fewer than most organisers realise.

Part of the problem stems from an absence of standard terminology with which to

describe activities and roles and we hold out some possible ways this can be tackled.

The Evolution and Project Journey of an Event

Although organisers will often think of their event as unique, it is likely to follow a pretty

standard journey which many have travelled before. Where the idea or impetus for an

event comes from tends to set it on a track which has a disproportionate impact on its

progress. We demonstrate a pragmatic approach to treating all types of event from PR

activity, to a “pure”sporting occasion in a similar way. This approach results in fewer

hostages to fortune and a greater possibility that an event will meet expectations.

Sports events are often sub‐optimal either in terms of how much they cost or what they

deliver. Event potential is thus missed and many of those involved are left ruing what

might have been. A disciplined and ordered approach to the early stages are much more

likely to lead to a success on everyone’s terms.

Feasibility, Development and Planning

Often a stage which is skipped, feasibility identifies the essential risk and success factors

for an event and asks a lot of the vital questions. Effective feasibility is carried out before

large sums and lots of political capital is committed and will always result in a better

plan. Although not all the information is known at the feasibility stage, most cost

elements and the range of variances likely to be experienced can be calculated. This

enables organisers to set a budget and contingency fund and ensure the money is there to

get the project off the ground.

Page | 7

Page 8: New Event Management for 3hd Media Costing and Analysis

Development and planning is a combination of creative and very practical tasks which set

out the routemap for all of those involved to follow. Whether these are people directly

employed by the organising committee or by the range of external delivery partners that

are likely to be part of the event, each will need to be clear on the purpose and plan for

their activity. This enables the right team or agencies to be selected and parameters set as

to how they will all work together. There is no standard approach to planning but there

are a few different ways that many with experience have found to be successful. We

present these ways of thinking about structure, relationships and contracts to get the event

off to a flying start.

The Winning Team

The people and organisations involved in a large‐scale event multiply with the amounts

of money involved and the different outcomes required. The event organiser has to as

much diplomat as dictator; to be decisive and inclusive. We examine first the role of the

leader and the skills and style that sit best with this important role. Sitting below the

leader will be the immediate team charged with the delivery. Where this team

comes from and how they are managed can mean the difference between smooth running

success and an acrimonious failure. Hovering around the edges will be the paymasters

and the politicians, the commercial partners and the community, the sporting authorities

and the suppliers. Cohering these stakeholders around a common purpose is a difficult

challenge. However, it is all worthwhile to get agreement and make progress and

contributes overwhelmingly to a positive legacy.

Procurement and Contracting

However well managed relationships are the process of selecting and securing the

services of suppliers is a technical one. This is the area where the largest proportion of

the event organiser’s budget will be spent so has the most potential to derail or delivery

the budgeted event. Judging at what point to bring in external providers is not a

straightforward decision. Outsourcing a project entirely is likely to be more expensive on

the face of it, but blundering around with an inexperienced in‐house team is likely to cost

more overall both in budget and time.

Page | 8

Page 9: New Event Management for 3hd Media Costing and Analysis

Inevitably, suppliers will need to be contracted at some stage and some kind of tender

process will normally be required. There are several ways of ensuring the best supplier is

selected and the best value obtained and we review them here.

Legal

The law touches major events in so many ways that this is a vital chapter. Whilst not

advocating immediate recourse to lawyers this section does demonstrate the legal

implications of the many decisions event organisers make. This starts with understanding

the legal status of the event itself and feeds through to many of the other commercial

arrangements. We examine the legal basis of agreements with rights‐holders, athletes and

teams, sponsors, broadcasters and suppliers to offer clear practical advice on what to

expect. Finally we examine the area of risk and offer some ways in which the law can

help reduce if not the risks themselves, then at least the consequences.

Part two: Optimising Major Event Revenues

For event organisers, one of the biggest headaches and areas of uncertainty may be

around money. Where part one looked at ways to keep costs under control, part two

covers the major revenue streams and how to optimise them.

Developing a Media‐Rights Strategy

For many sports the money from broadcasters for the right to show television footage of

their events has become a very significant income stream. For this reason many will have

long‐standing arrangements with broadcasters which cover events over several iterations.

This is not always the case and many event organisers will have the discretion and indeed

be expected to make local arrangements for delivery to television audience. This is, of

course, vital to rights‐holders who want to drive interest in their events and to sponsors

whose investment is thereby multiplied. This section provides some guidelines on how to

take a strategic approach to media rights and looks in‐depth at case examples from the

IAAF, UEFA and the English Football Association

Page | 9

Page 10: New Event Management for 3hd Media Costing and Analysis

Sponsorship

Sponsorship is another are where global rights may already have been sold by rights‐holders but it is likely that event organisers will have the opportunity to raise money from

their domestic brands. This section provides a clear, eight‐step approach to getting the

most out of this opportunity. We follow a path from packaging up rights to identifying

and approaching sponsors, negotiating win‐win deals and delivering what sponsors

require. Event organisers will be expected to work with both local and global sponsors

and this can often requires a specific team in itself. Finally, everyone will want to know

what the results were and we offer some advice on evaluating the effectiveness of the

programme.

Ticketing and Hospitality

Some of the most important decisions an event organiser will take will be around ticket

sales. Priced too low and vital money will be lost, priced too high and the take‐up among

the local community will fall short leading to embarrassingly empty venues.

Having set prices and created packages to suit all expected visitors, event organisers will

need to consider whether to sell tickets directly or share the load with a ticketing agency.

And, once tickets are sold they will need to look at the secondary market as that is where

the hottest tickets may end up. Many rights‐holders and sponsors will have an allocation

of premium seats but that should not rule out the possibility of selling hospitality

packages. This section reviews how this market has changed, offers advice on what

constitutes an attractive VIP product and how these can be sold.

Page | 10

Page 11: New Event Management for 3hd Media Costing and Analysis

Licensing and Merchandising

Beyond the ticket itself, many fans value the chance to demonstrate their allegiance

during the event. Flags, scarves, hats, shirts and even horns build atmosphere in the

stadium and provide a significant income stream. Fans will often purchase other

programmes, souvenirs and other memorabilia of their experience and event branded

goods can be a way for a local community to show their support for an event in a

practical way. This section looks at the different income streams from merchandised

goods can be exploited and the ways event organisers can use logos and mascots to

generate revenues.

Part three: Event Delivery and Measurement

If the planning and preparation are done well and the revenue streams are secure, then

event

delivery should proceed without a hitch. As the clock ticks down to the event, however,

there is less

time to deal with the inevitable challenges as they arise.

Recruiting and Managing Volunteers

Volunteers are a common part of most major games and many event organisers will see

this as very positive thing. Using volunteers will not necessarily be lower cost but it will

engage the community, deliver a positive welcome to visitors and contribute to the all‐important legacy. A successful volunteer programme will not just happen. Using

volunteers needs to be taken as seriously as any other component. Careful planning,

recruitment, training and communication can ensure both volunteers and visitors have a

great experience. We take a case example from the Melbourne Commonwealth Games to

show how a successful programme can work in practice.

Page | 11

Page 12: New Event Management for 3hd Media Costing and Analysis

Event Media Management

The media can be a blessing and a curse but no event organiser can operate without

giving them full consideration. Managed well, the media can help build a narrative

around an event and generate the excitement needed to deliver sell‐out crowds. If they are

abused they will report negatively and this kind of coverage can cast a dark shadow over

the event. Media accommodation is one of the fine judgements that organisers have to

make. Over specifying the press centre will be a costly waste of money but cramped and

inadequate accommodation will inevitably result in sub‐optimal results. This section

shows how to engage positively with the media and to give them what they need to do

their job effectively. We look at accreditation, practical facilities, access and information

that the press will need in this era of 24/7 digital reporting.

Safety and Security

The instances of major sporting events being targeted by terrorists have multiplied to

make this area a serious concern for event organisers. Awareness of potential problems

has also led to both athletes and audiences to think twice before committing to attend. All

groups involved need to know that security is being managed effectively.

In fact, the far bigger risk in terms of likelihood is one of safety. Large crowds unfamiliar

with their surroundings need to be managed to ensure events pass off without incident.

Not every risk can be eliminated but most can be reduced, transferred or mitigated

against leading to far fewer sleepless nights for event organisers.

Sustainability

Every human activity has an environmental impact but the high profile and somewhat

transient nature of sports events puts the question of sustainability high in the minds of

commentators and activists. Better event management will allow for more reuse of

equipment and a permanently used legacy. Approaches throughout the supply chain of

preparation for major events and particularly during proceedings can also reduce overall

waste and emissions. The profile of major events also gives an opportunity for rights‐holders, organisers and sponsors to influence the habits of large numbers of people. How

Page | 12

Page 13: New Event Management for 3hd Media Costing and Analysis

these messages are communicated also requires careful thought to avoid public fatigue

and accusations of greenwashing.

Measurement and Evaluation

It is only once an event is over that a final assessment of its value can be arrived at. Many

budget items will not be fully known until a late stage and some legacy deliverables will

not be apparent for months or even years. Most organisers will try to put a single figure

on economic impact but this is far from being a straightforward task. Even for simple

measures such as visitors, hotel rooms and spending they will need to consider whether

new money was brought in from outside the community and the effect of those who

would otherwise have visited but were put‐off by the prospect of crowds. There are also a

range of softer measures which are important for the event organiser and his team,

the rights‐holder and future event hosts and the commercial partners of events.

INTRODUCTION FOR THE PROJECT

What are Events?

An event can be described as a public assembly for the purpose of celebration ,

education,marketing or reunion.

Events can be classified on the basis of their size,type and context.

Event management is the application of project management to the creation and

development of festivals,events and conferences.

The recent growth of festivals and events as an industry around the world means that the

management can no longer be ad hoc.

EVENT CAN REFER TO:

Social/life-cycle events

Events like birthday party, hen/stag party, graduation party, bachelors party,

engagement ,wedding, anniversary, retirement day, funeral etc

Educational and career events

Events like education fair, job fair, workshop, seminar, debate, contest,

completion etc

What is Event Management

Event management, the most profound form of advertising and marketing, is a glamorous

and thrilling profession. It provides an opportunity for unleashing one's creative potential

to a very high degree. Event management is a process of organizing a professional and

focused event, for a particular target audience. It involves visualising concepts, planning,

budgeting, organizing and executing events such as fashion shows, musical concerts,

corporate seminars, exhibitions, wedding celebrations, theme parties product launching

etc. It is a good career option which does not require much investment and offers a lot of

independence and flexibility.

Event management is considered one of the strategic marketing and communication tools

by companies of all sizes. From product launches to press conferences, companies create

promotional events to help them communicate with clients and potential clients. They

might target their audience by using the news media, hoping to generate media coverage

which will reach thousands or millions of people.

Page | 19

Page 20: New Event Management for 3hd Media Costing and Analysis

Event management is the application of project management to the creation and

development of festivals, events and conferences.

Event management involves studying the intricacies of the brand, identifying the target

audience, devising the event concept, planning the logistics and coordinating the

technical aspects before actually executing the modalities of the proposed event. Post-

event analysis and ensuring a return on investment have become significant drivers for

the event industry.

The recent growth of festivals and events as an industry around the world means that the

management can no longer be ad hoc. Events and festivals, such as the Asian Games,

have a large impact on their communities and, in some cases, the whole country.

The industry now includes events of all sizes from the Olympics down to a breakfast

meeting for ten business people. Many industries, charitable organizations, and interest

groups will hold events of some size in order to market themselves, build business

relationships, raise money or celebrate

Events Definition In-Short

This is a diagrammatic representation of the above definition. From the model it is evident that an event is a package so organized has to provide, reach and live interaction between the target audience and the client to achieve the desired impact.

Marketing tool

Event management is considered one of the strategic marketing and communication tools

by companies of all sizes. From product launches to press conferences, companies create

promotional events to help them communicate with clients and potential clients. They

might target their audience by using the news media, hoping to generate media coverage

which will reach thousands or millions of people. They can also invite their audience to

their events and reach them at the actual event.

Services

Event management companies and organizations service a variety of areas including

corporate events , marketing programs (road shows, grand opening events), and special

corporate hospitality events like concerts, award ceremonies, film premieres,

launch/release parties, fashion shows, commercial events, private (personal) events such

as weddings and bar mitzvahs.

Clients hire event management companies to handle a specific scope of services for the

given event, which at its maximum may include all creative, technical and logistical

elements of the event.

Sustainability

Sustainable event management (also known as event greening) is the process used to

produce an event with particular concern for environmental, economic and social issues.

Sustainability in event management incorporates socially and environmentally

responsible decision making into the planning, organization and implementation of, and

participation in, an event. It involves including sustainable development principles and

practices in all levels of event organization, and aims to ensure that an event is hosted

responsibly. It represents the total package of interventions at an event, and needs to be

done in an integrated manner. Event greening should start at the inception of the project,

and should involve all the key role players, such as clients, organizers, venues, sub-

contractors and suppliers.

Page 22: New Event Management for 3hd Media Costing and Analysis

Technology

Event management software companies provide event planners with software tools to

handle many common activities such as delegate registration, hotel booking, travel

booking or allocation of exhibition floor space.

Education

There are an increasing number of universities which offer courses in event management,

including diplomas and graduate degrees. In addition to these academic courses, there are

many associations and societies that provide courses on the various aspects of the

industry.

Career opportunities are in the following Industries:

Canvassing

Many corporates were approached with the initial concept to sponsor the event. The leads

generated through canvassing for sponsors and negotiation with venue owners gave a

strong impetus and indication of success for a particular variation. A leading soft drinks

company could be persuaded to fully sponsor the event.

Customization

The target audience of the soft drink company was pre-dominantly was fun-seeking

youth. The initial concept needed to be changed from a family oriented event to a

youthful event. The budget was needed to be drastically reduced to Rs. 2lakhs per center

and the event was to be simultaneously conducted in 5 locations spread across the

country.

Final Concept and Carrying Out

Constraint of budget and specific requirement of the client changed the initial concept of

a two day program to a 3 hour forenoon program titled “HOLI GYRATIONS 2000”. The

program essentially revolved around a color rain dance and color blast for young people

with coverage on a popular youth oriented music channel on the television. It was also

decided to use the event coverage as software for future use by the channel. Now the

event was fully sponsored show for a single sponsor with invitations to a limited no. of

participants. The show was fully customized to give pre-dominant importance to the

sponsors’ colors viz. red and blue. The carry out stage involved being exceptionally

careful and prepared for eventualities such as hazards of drunken misbehavior of the

youth even though liquor was not allowed inside the venue. The interaction revolved

around a popular VJ anchoring the show and except for dancing, there would be hardly

anything else actually happening. The carry out stage gets completely taken over by the

music channel.

LITERATURE REVIEW

In a business organization, a budget represents an estimate of future costs and revenues.

Budgets may be divided into two basic classes: Capital Budgets and Operating Budgets.

Capital budgets are directed towards proposed expenditures for new projects and often

require special financing. The operating budgets are directed towards achieving short

term operational goals of the organization, for instance, production or profit goals in a

business firm. Operating budgets may be sub-divided into various departmental

of functional budgets. No system of planning can be successful without having an

effective and efficient system of control. Budgeting is closely connected with control.

The exercise of control in the organization with the help of budgets is known as

budgetary control.

The process of budgetary control includes:

1. Preparation of various budgets.

2. Continuous comparison of actual performance with budgetary performance.

3. Revision of budgets in the light of changed circumstances.

A system of budgetary control should not become rigid. There should be enough scope of

flexibility to provide for individual initiative and drive. Budgetary control is an important

device for making the organization. It is an important tool for controlling costs and

achieving the overall objectives

Cost Plans and Budgets

Depending on the policies of your company, you may be involved with developing the

cost plan and maintaining the event’s budget. Often the client has been given a quote

before the show, which typically includes expenses such as pre-planning, travel,

subrentals, and other variable costs. It’s the responsibility of the AV technician to

monitor the budget during the event. There are a variety of budgets, all created to track

and categorize every dollar.

Page | 38

Page 39: New Event Management for 3hd Media Costing and Analysis

As an AV technician, you will have the greatest impact on two types of budgets:

• Event budgets or event cost plans

• Company budgets

It is easy to get these two types of budgets confused. Due to their close relationship, they

share several standard accounting characteristics.

Examples of a rental company’s finances (Figure A) and the budget breakdown of an

event (Figure B) are on the next page. These are great examples of the blocks of financial

data that are organized and analyzed by the accounting department to forecast the

Financial standing of the company. Notice that both tables track similar data such as

income, revenue, and expenses; except an event’s budget is focused on financial details

of a single event rather than the impact of many events.

When it comes to individual shows, the cost structure changes in comparison to the

company’s overall picture. An event that uses minimal outside resources will appear to

be more profitable.

Key Financial Factors During an Event

Making good decisions during crisis situations can be a daunting task. You must use your

knowledge of the show’s budget, the client’s temperament, and your company’s

resources to come up with viable solutions. One resource that you can use to make

informed decisions is the employee time log. This will help you know the status of each

employee.

Before you make a decision look at the key factors to consider during a crisis:

• Fixed labor

• Unreimbursed (you cannot charge your client) overtime

• Unreimbursed (you cannot charge your client) supplies

• Unnecessary sub-rentals

Page | 39

Page 40: New Event Management for 3hd Media Costing and Analysis

Allocating Resources During an Event

There are many decisions to make during an event. When you are new to managing

events, it is often difficult to know what decisions to make. Unfortunately, there is no list

of right and wrong answers, when it comes to these decisions. You must learn about

the common mistakes made during the event and do your best to avoid making similar

mistakes.

Each company has a different process for approving changes to the budget or schedule.

These processes can often require an AV technician to contact several people before

making a change. It is a best practice for a company to provide its technicians with

contact information for everyone who must approve a change, and the procedure

involved with making that change.

Budgets and financial management

Good financial management is fundamental to the delivery of successful events. Our

advice is simple: plan ahead, be realistic, keep on top of your budget and implement

control systems that work for you.

Right from the start, ensure that you set a realistic budget with inbuilt flexibility and

Identified contingencies. If you are looking to raise public funds or sponsorship, don’t

Approach a potential funder until you are able to present a realistic outline budget.

Remember, you need to convince yourself of the event’s financial viability before you

can convince others.

Preparing your Budget

Your event budget is basically a projection of all income and expenditure relating to the

development and delivery of the event. To help you manage event finances effectively

it’s a good approach to keep a ‘live budget’ on your computer – i.e. a spreadsheet that

you update on a regular (daily/weekly) basis. Set up your budget in a package such as

Microsoft Excel so that you have numeric functions to help you manage the financial

data.

Prologue

Davies and Brown (2000) write that “festivals and events are special times in people’s

lives, they give us the opportunity to go outside normal experiences for a cultural, social

or leisure experience” (p.169). The public use of the word ‘event’ does not necessarily

concur with the scientific use of it (Loos, Hermes, & Thomas, 2008). The literature

available is mostly not concerned about defining the word event prior to undertaking

research in the field, which leads to communication gaps and misunderstandings.

To prevent common misunderstandings this literature review defines, discusses and

structures the comparatively young industry of event management. It starts with the

origin of the word ‘event’ and the industry of event management, followed by the

importance, the influencing factors and the skills of people within the industry. The last

part of the literature review is devoted to a framework of best practices in event

management. The outcome of the literature review is a base to work from throughout the

thesis and beyond.

Sports Participation and Development Studies

In conducting this research we were looking for previous studies which

assessed the impact on levels of participation in sport following major events.

We were also concerned to look at the development of new facilities as part of

staging sporting events and their usage since.

General Trends

Considerable research exists on the general trends in sports

participation and this provides useful baseline information - a context within

which the assessment of the impact of Manchester 2002 must be placed -

about what we might expect from sport development impact of a major event

(including Manchester 2002).

Page | 41

Page 42: New Event Management for 3hd Media Costing and Analysis

Gratton and Tice (1994) used the General Household Survey (GHS) to

analyse trends in sports participation between 1977 and 1987. Their results

show:

· that indoor sport has increased the most rapidly (60% increase in

comparison to 13% increase in outdoor sports)

· the average age of participants increased across all groups

· a higher number of those retired from employment were participating in

sport and the number of females participating in sport increased.

· the most popular outdoor activity was walking (19.1% participation rate)

· the next most popular outdoor activity being football (2.7%)

· swimming (indoors) was the second most popular activity overall with a

participation rate of 9.5%.

They concluded that growing number of those taking part in indoor

sports can be attributed to massive public investment in new indoor facilities

over the 1970s and 1980s. Gratton and Tice conclude that their statistical

analysis indicates that age is less of a barrier to sports participation than in

earlier years. The older sports participants also had a much wider range of

non-sport leisure interests than non-participants suggesting that they have a

rich and varied leisure lifestyle (1994: 66). They recommend that provision of

publicly provided indoor facilities may prove to be an important policy for

preventive health care for an ageing population.

COSTING AND ANALYSIS FOR MILES FOR HOPE

Costing and Cost Accounting:

Costing or cost accounting is a branch of accounting which deals with recording

classifying and appropriate allocation of expenditure to determine the cost of product and

services.  After determining the cost one can fix the profit margin and also the fix the

selling price.  In this complex and competitive market scenario, it is essential to

determine the cost of products and services.  It also help the management to take an

informed decision to reduce cost and increase the profit, reduce the manufacturing cost,

whereby reducing the selling price.  To sustain in this competitive market, producers

needs to reduce the selling price and increase the quality.

Definition of Costing.

According to Harold J Wheldon "Costing is the classifying, recording and appropriate

allocation of expenditure for the determination of the costs of products or services; and

for the presentation suitably of arranged data for purposes of control and guidance of

management.

The term "Costing" and "Cost Accounting" are used interchangeably.  However, Costing

refers to the technique and process of ascertaining costs.  There are specified rules and

principles which are used to determine the cost of products and services.  Whereas the

term Cost Accounting refers the process of finding out the cost.  

According to the Institute of Cost and Management Account "Cost accounting is that part

of management accounting which establishes budgets and standard costs and actual costs

of operations, processes, departments or products and the analysis of variances,

profitability or social use of funds."

Page | 43

Page 44: New Event Management for 3hd Media Costing and Analysis

Use of costing

Every economic activity such as production and services involves some expenses.  These

expenses may be of raw materials, labour cost or other direct and indirect expenses.  The

purpose of production or services is that to earn profit.  Cost accounting serves the

purpose of identifying the expenses and cost and the profit margin of the product.  For

example a cloth factory launches a new shirt.  It has to incure $30 for material $ 20 for

labor and $ 25 for other overheads.  The selling price fixed as $ 100.  The cost of the shirt

is $ 75 (30+20+25) Profit is $ 25 (100-75).  

Every manufacturer requires such information for the purpose of planning, decision

making and cost control.  Most of the time it is difficult to extract such information from

the financial accounting.  A new system of accounting is developed to cater the

requirement of the management to control the cost.  Various limitations and deficiencies

of financial accounting gave rise to the need of cost accounting.

Costing provides the following benefits:

1. Fast Decisions: Costing help the management to take fast and informed decision on

the basis of data provided by the Cost Accounting.

2. Optimum Profit: Costing help the organization to maximize the profit by exercising

efficient control in personal, financial, production and marketing activities.

3. Maximum utilization of Limited Resources: By minimizing the wastage, once can

minimize the wastage and maximize the utilization of resources.

4. Maintain Social Responsibility: Social responsibility in terms of regular supply,

reasonable price, proper quality can be attain by effectively utilizing the cost accounting.

Page | 44

Page 45: New Event Management for 3hd Media Costing and Analysis

5. Effective Management: In large manufacturing plants requires special attention in

every stage and process of the manufacturing. Cost accounting help the management to

easily control every stage of the manufacturing process efficiently. It'll help the

management to identify the inefficient department or process and address the issue and

correct it.

6. Help the organization Globally competitive: In this ever changing global market

stringent control over costs can help the organization to compete globally with other

manufactures/markets. 

Due to the many advantages, many companies are opting the help of costing to control

the cost. It is now a widely recognized branch of accounting and generating employment

for people who are specialized in Cost accounting. Costing helps in checking of wastage,

pricing, control of resources, management of process, discharge of social obligations,

flow of data for decision making and provides opportunity for profit growth in the

organization.

OBSERVATIONS / FINDINGS

Plan For the event:

One of the most important things to think about when organizing a race is setting

realistic goals.

Both types of races have their advantages, as long as expectations have been set

appropriately.

“Don’t think you’re going to be the boss of the marathon at your first go,” noted

Camire. “If you set a goal of 25,000 and get 25 people, you’ll be disappointed.

If you set a goal of 25 people and get 25 people, you’ve met your goal. “

How to determine which expectations are reasonable?

You need to determine resources to make this thing happen. If you have a whole

committee of people, a major company or major cause behind you, then

significant expectations might be reasonable

All you really need is two people to compete. Two people and it’s a race. You’re

up and running

If you can get 200 people to your first event, that’s a pretty good goal. But

remember, a race is a race. “All you really need is two people to compete. Two

people and it’s a race. You’re up and running,” said Camire

Page | 49

Page 50: New Event Management for 3hd Media Costing and Analysis

Safety First:

“The first important lesson I learned about racing over the years, is to make sure

no one dies,” chuckled Camire. “Clean and simple. Safety is No. 1.”

Here are a few pointers to make sure you’re prepared to keep everyone at your

event safe and sound:

Make sure there is plenty of water on the course

Make sure traffic control is present so no one gets hit by a vehicle

Use volunteers and make signs to make sure people stay on correct course

Make sure you have medical presence

“You probably want to have an ambulance or EMT present. But it may be as

simple as educating your volunteers to not hesitate to call 911 immediately in the

event of an emergency,” Camire said. “The point is: be prepared for everything. If

everyone makes it to the finish line safely, it’s a successful event. Safety is the

most important thing.”

Plan the Logistics:

There are lots of odds and ends associated with a race besides the actual race.

Here’s a list things first-time race directors might forget to have on their to-do

lists:

Race-day checklist

Accurately marked course

Accurately measured course

Well-run registration to ensure all participants registered properly

Awards / Ceremony

Results

Medical presence

Water stops

Post-race music and food

Goodie bags / T-shirts

Page | 50

Page 51: New Event Management for 3hd Media Costing and Analysis

Get Permission:

“If you don’t have permission, you can’t do your event,” said McGillivray. “Once

you decide where you want to conduct the event, you have to go to the permitting

authorities and get permission.

Sunstrides was co-organizing an event with another organization that was

responsible for getting the permit when, two months before the event, she was

informed by the city that they had no awareness of the event.

By this time, it was too late to get approval for that date so they rescheduled the

date and tried to rush the permit through. “We delayed promotions until too close

to the event and eventually had to cancel. It was a huge waste of time and energy

that we wouldn’t have wasted if I had a permit in my hands from the get-go.”
