Melbourne Advertising and Design Club (MADC) – Awards entry system/Banquet Manager
The project put in place an awards entry system for the MADC (Melbourne Advertising and Design Club). The system was used to drive the awards that received over 1200 entries from 300 different companies. The system was designed to provide a means by which entries could be collated for the judging process. In addition it was used to drive the awards night production, produce the awards certificates and layout the awards book pre press utilising a combination of theWEBSQUAD facilities.
Our Banquet Manager facility then provided the management system for the actual awards night with over 800 people involved in creative industries seated at Crown Paladium and The Great Hall at the Gallery.

Disney – Event registration and booking system
theWEBSQUAD got involved with Disney back in 2005 at the launch of its Princess Academy event. In conjunction with a retail promotion, guardians and children were able to apply to attend a Princess Academy event, one of which was held in each Australian capital. EVENTOffice organised a system that allowed people to register for the event whilst providing the necessary confirmation and event information. 1000 guests were given access to the event and once that number was reached, the system provided a facility for providing additional registrants with a complimentary gift. Disney was provided with an administrative and reporting function allowing them to view and modify individual guest records. theWEBSQUAD has again been invited to supply EVENTOffice facilities for the 2006 promotion.
"I would recommend the EventOFFICE system for any client trying to manage event entry process delivering a stress free answer to one component of any complex marketing event or activity."

Equity Trustees – Awards entry system
Equity Trustees uses two EVENTOffice facilities. The first is specifically used for those events that are based on awards that require a nomination and judging process. Equity Trustees runs a high profile annual event that recognises the achievement of CEO’s in the not for profit sector. Nominations for four award categories are done online and the facility provides nominators with a personalised login allowing them to work on their nomination on any number of occasions prior to submitting it for final submission. Equity Trustees are provided with an administration console allowing them to manage the judging and content collation process.
Equity Trustees – Banquet Manager
Toward the end of 2007, Equity Trustees will run a high profile dinner event at the Hyatt hotel. Our Banquet Management product will again be used to handle all the table sales, acknowledgements and payment receipts, table allocations, individual menu selections, guest names and name tag production. A key target of the Banquet Management facility is larger table based events. A key feature of the facility is that bookings can be made for entire tables or individual seats without guest names having to be provided at the time of booking. Once a booking is made, each person is provided with a system login in order that they can provide and edit guest details.
Given there are a variety of stakeholder sponsors, the event organisers have the ability to use the system for sponsor bookings with null or part payments involved. Closer to the event the system will then be used for table allocation, production of table guest lists and production of name tags. A payment facility is integrated.
Melbourne Marketing Lunch - Banquet Manager
Melbourne Marketing Lunches is a long standing user of the Banquet Management facility. They hold 4-5 lunches each year with an audience between 400-700 people per luncheon. A key feature of this project is that there are multiple events and this facility provides the ability for guests to book for one or a number of events at a single sitting.
Given there are a variety of stakeholder sponsors, the event organisers have the ability to use the system for sponsor bookings with null or part payments involved. Closer to the event the system will then be used for table allocation, production of table guest lists and production of name tags. A payment facility is integrated.
