BIZ201 : Option 2 - Functions and Events Department Assessment
TASK 3
As part of the promoting the Crystal Wellness Centre, your team has been appointed to help to organise the Crystal Hotel Wellness Centre Opening Luncheon. The hotel is expecting 300 guests to attend the event. Your team has been given a list of resources that need to be outsourced that is included in the Appendix 4 of this document. The Hotel Restaurant will provide the food and beverages and the price is included in your list. Casual staff will be hired by the hotel at the rate given to you in the Appendix 4. The Audio-VisualSystem and Staging are provided internally and do not need to be budgeted for.
The rest of the required items will need to be outsourced. You are expected to find suitable suppliers online and to complete the event costing. In terms of the entertainment, your team needs to choose an appropriate supplier for this type of event.
The gift hampers are to be given to the hotel’s long-term corporate clients. Additionally, every visitor will receive a small promotional gift. While the event is planned to last for three hours, the chair covers are required to be hired for 5 hours in total. The overall budget for the resources listed is $16,000.
REQUIRED
Your task is to do an online search of appropriate suppliers in order to complete the event costing. All calculations need to be included in the Excel Workbook and the summary of the costing provided in the Business Report as well. Provide references to the sources of the quotes and prices you have based the costing on. All costing must be done from online resources without contacting suppliers directly as this task is purely for the assessment purposes. Links to the supplies used need to be provided as part of the reference list.
