The third section of the project deals with the actual process of event management. We first look at the over all planning structure which is comprised of analyzing the event. This is followed by assembling the event management team, then selecting the event coordinator. After which decision makers, technical staff and support staff are appointed. An efficient record keeping system is to be implemented.

The fourth section of the planning phase is the budget, which is a very important detail. It is only through the budget does the manager know what all are the options in all the fields that can be employed for the event. Then an efficient program design needs to be designed.
