With the year rapidly winding-down towards the year-end recess, corporates in particular are shopping around for the best MICE deals for their various requirements. Be it year-end appreciations, wrap-up sales achievements, final training courses or well-deserved awards, the MICE trade are increasingly frustrated with the lack of early decision-making as client’s hesitate with investigating the best and cheapest quotes which offer a staggering range of add-ons.
There can be a high price to pay if effective checks are not carried-out as to the actual abilities of sub-contractors and their track-records.

Unless the client has serious re-course built-into the agreement – the MICE undertaking can prove more expensive than anticipated in the first place.
