Expo pre production and a surprize in the post

Some good news arrived in the post this month, a certificate for passing the IOSH Managing Safely exam earlier in the year, I must get round to putting it up on the office wall.
This has been a full on month of pre event planning, organising multiple agency and end customers for an exhibition in London. It has been a bit like that program ‘one man and his dog’ only as a team we have been trying to steer the agency’s into our way of thinking with providing the right health and safety paperwork and plans so we know what to expect when they arrive to fill their allotted space.
It appears work is still being confirmed late, organised late and instructed late, the end client is at fault here. The trouble is the longer the delay on making a call on an event the more difficult it is for suppliers to arrange their own diaries and submit the required details to aid a smooth running project. I am not sure it has been any different in some circumstances but a return to some good old fashioned forward planning would be welcome.
