Event management is an activity geared towards ensuring the success of a particular event, festivals and conferences. It involves several processes that an event manager should acquaint himself with. However, throughout the whole process of event management, an event manager can face unexpected occurrences that need immediate reaction.

Hence, crisis management is part of the whole process of event management.

In the given scenario, there seems to be a need for an immediate attention on getting a reliable power backup. Hence, there are several options you should explore to manage the crisis. One of the possible options that you can think of is calling the building electrical engineer. He can agree to get back at the conference facility in time.

He can only be in a position to give an explanation over the phone on how to address the issue. The only problem is that you have inadequate know how on execution of technical instructions, thus rendering this option less helpful.

Another viable option at your disposal is to consider getting an alternative power supply. If the event management team had anticipated the possible power loss at the conference facility, then you may have carried a generator with you. However, this may not be the case. The event management team may have anticipated a smooth flow of activity. On the other hand, you can consider hiring one, but the possibility of doing so is quite remote, as most businesses close by 5 pm. Thus, there is need to think hard to come up with another immediate response.

The remaining alternative is to rely on the trucks power supply. It is good that the truck driver is living you with the key. The only thing you need to do is to consult the driver over this particular undertaking. Most likely, he is going agree to your plan since he wants to protect the interest of his business of safe delivery of dairy products. If he agrees to your plan and the possible compensation scheme, then proceed with this last option.
