Project-based consulting
Best suited to a specific question or deliverable: an operational review, readiness plan, staffing structure or improvement roadmap. Work is organized around agreed milestones and a defined closeout.
ENGAGEMENT OPTIONS
The right level of support for your season.
Defined project scopes, seasonal relationships and continuing operational advice.
WAYS TO WORK TOGETHER
Select the engagement around the work.
Seasonal retainer
Best suited to a coordinated period of preparation and operation. The scope establishes recurring responsibilities, reporting, coverage windows and the balance of remote and onsite work.
Annual advisory relationship
Best suited to year-round planning and improvement. Regular reviews can support budgeting inputs, operational development, next-season preparation and continuity between event cycles.
PROPOSAL STRUCTURE
What we define before work starts.
- Business objectives and expected deliverables
- Client and IllumiCraft responsibilities, contacts and decision authority
- Work schedule, milestones, support hours and escalation arrangements
- Fees, travel, expenses and payment milestones
- Required access, client inputs and vendor dependencies
- Scope exclusions, change process and closeout requirements
SUPPORT COVERAGE
Coverage matched to the operating calendar.
Remote and onsite support can be combined within an engagement. Event-day extended support is scoped around scheduled operating periods and agreed responsibilities. Coverage is not an automatic 24/7 service; hours, contact channels and response expectations are confirmed in the agreement.
Pricing is prepared around scope, duration, site requirements and travel. We first establish what the business needs so the proposal reflects the actual work.
Let’s define the right engagement.
Start with your event, your timeline and your operating priorities.
