Woo hoo!! Way to go to Unions!!
Building a trade show exhibit construction bears a striking resemblance to that of other construction projects with the exception that the climate is controlled. It requires the co-operation of the client, logistics & McCormick Place construction crews.
While a second major trade show has chosen to relocate elsewhere, the urgent need for optimal trade show planning & project management persists.
However tempting to blame trade show loss on union work rules, in fact, a variety of factors may have contributed to increased expenses, including flawed logistics, deficient project management & compressed schedules. As they say, "a job well-planned is half done!"
