This resource is designed for Event organisers and Operations managers who need a practical, reusable document for event operations.

How to use this resource

  1. 1

    Add the event information and assumptions

    Open the file and replace placeholders with your event name, dates, venues, audience size and planning assumptions.

  2. 2

    Assign owners and dates

    Give each section or row a named owner and a completion date so responsibilities are visible across the team.

  3. 3

    Review the plan with the relevant team

    Walk through the resource with operations, marketing or commercial owners before locking decisions.

  4. 4

    Update it as the event changes

    Keep the live file current as scope, suppliers and timelines change so handoffs stay accurate through event day.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Leaving owners blank so actions stall between departments
  • Treating the file as a one-off instead of the live working copy

Frequently asked questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What download is available for the Stock Item Catalog Template?+

The resource provides stock-item-catalog-template.xlsx, an editable XLSX catalogue for event inventory items.

Which item attributes belong in the stock catalogue?+

Capture sellable SKU, unit, category, barcode or PLU, reorder threshold and supplier link, together with pack-size information where it affects stock handling.

When should the stock item catalogue be prepared?+

Prepare and de-duplicate it before opening-stock imports, POS mapping and procurement setup so downstream teams use the same SKU, unit and category definitions.

How is the stock catalogue different from a POS menu?+

The stock catalogue defines inventory items and controls; a POS menu defines sellable product lines, which are connected later through the POS Product Mapping Checklist.
