What we need from you

Below is the minimum advance document set. We will bid blind against the form, but a full bid requires all four documents.

Stage plot — Vectorworks or PDF. Every fixture, every motor, every audio pickup, every console.
Rider — production rider with the technical specs (fixture pack, audio rig, motor count, console choice).
Gauge plan — proposed feeder size and termination type at the venue. If you don’t have one, send the rider and we’ll write it.
Load-in window — the actual load-in time agreed with the venue, plus any constraints (truck stage, freight elevator slots, IATSE call window).

What happens next

T+0: form submission. Auto-confirmation email with provisional PRD reference.
T+4 hrs (working hours): dispatch reply with our questions and a tentative quote.
T+1–3 days: walk-through with the AHJ at the venue scheduled (if venue is new to us) or confirmed (if venue is one we work regularly).
T+5–10 days: signed contract; cable manifest issued; truck staged.
T-3 to T-0 days: load-in. Megger / phase-rotate / GFCI cycle at tie-in. Show goes.

For shows already loaded-in: the 24-hour on-call line is the way. 615 · 555 · 0418; we answer within 45 minutes.

A note on hours

The form and the email queue are read during weekday business hours (08:00–18:00 CDT). The on-call line is read 24 hours, but please reserve it for shows in load-in or in performance — for booking inquiries the form gets you a better answer faster, because the on-call hand doesn’t have the binder in front of them.
