The MICE industry stands on the cusp of a new era with professional planners assisting the potential client on how to get the best from distributing a series of quotations/RFPs for the type of event envisaged.
Effective communications in which procurement decisions are based on a greater understanding of the organising ‘mix’ of tasks in order to meet the objectives is a further avenue on the drawing-board.
Determining the professional planner from those with less understanding of the full planning spectrum is long overdue and forms a part of the investigations.
The challenges whereby all events are different while all client’s methods of viewing an event are equally different – creates a unique needs analysis going forward.
The MICE Academy will be investigating the possibilities together with the enthusiastic inputs of professional planners.
Independent planners are invited to join the discussions by email the Academy at info@miceacademy.co.za
