"What does your throughput look like at a 600-person event with a 3-hour window, and what is your contingency if your primary equipment has a problem?"

Question

Accepted Answer

Watch what happens.

A vendor with real operational depth will give you a number, a process, and a backup plan in one answer. They have thought about this. They have done it. They know.

A vendor without it will tell you not to worry. They'll say it's never been a problem. They'll get vague.

Vague is not a contingency plan. Vague is what makes you look bad in front of your CEO at hour two of a four-hour activation.
