What Turnkey Coordination Covers and Why It Matters

Turnkey solutions in Chicago begin with planning coordination that maps out your event timeline, identifies vendor dependencies, confirms labor requirements, and schedules freight delivery. Blindside works through exhibitor manuals, union rules, and venue-specific restrictions to ensure every step is sequenced correctly before the event opens.

After the event starts, you will notice that your booth is ready on time, materials are positioned correctly, graphics are mounted, and any issues are resolved without pulling you away from your audience. On-site coordination continues throughout the event, with the team available to handle adjustments, repairs, or last-minute changes before dismantle begins.

This service supports complex events requiring multiple vendors and moving parts, allowing clients to focus on engagement while Blindside handles execution. It is ideal for businesses seeking a single point of contact who manages the entire process, reduces risk, and ensures accountability from setup to teardown.

You avoid managing multiple vendors, tracking freight schedules, coordinating union labor, and troubleshooting setup issues. Blindside handles these tasks so you can focus on your audience and event goals.
When should I start planning for a turnkey event solution?

Large trade shows, product launches, corporate events, and multi-day exhibitions with complex logistics benefit most. Turnkey solutions work especially well at venues with strict labor rules, tight schedules, and multiple vendor dependencies.
