Delivering What You Envision For Your Exhibit Program
Supervision
Our team of supervisors work directly with display houses, exhibit manufactures and direct clients. Reading CAD prints / blueprints, plus a full understanding of all aspects of the exhibit and how it's assembly, disassembly and re-packing for any configuration is our forte. Our supervisors are responsible for working with union, as well as non-union crews regarding installation and dismantling instructions. We are the experts and supervise the team as to exactly how the exhibit assembles and dissembles. Heniff Field Services works with crews on custom details for each specific set. We manages the crew's timeline and efficiency to keep deadlines for set up and dismantle on track and costs in check. We manage general contractor’s crews and their services. Electricians, internet, rigging, sign hanging, AV, lighting, truss and any other services ordered are all included. We are pros in show paperwork; making sure all services and items ordered are at the booth space in place and accounted for. In addition, we manage freight and carrier shipments into and out of the convention center / set-up space.
