Operational sequence

Follow the work from first move to final handoff.

Each stage carries the production record forward so the next team begins with the context it needs.

  1. Plan the route

    Establish the tour operating context

    Organize route, tour, production, venue, and finance context before schedules and worker obligations begin to move.

  2. Staff

    Bring crew into readiness review

    Connect crew assignments with onboarding completion and give responsible teams a clear readiness and exception review.

  3. Schedule

    Coordinate the next call

    Keep schedules and call sheets tied to the route and crew context as locations and working plans change.

  4. Track work

    Record time and per diem inputs

    Record the approved time and per diem inputs payroll needs while preserving the event, route, and worker context behind them.

  5. Run payroll

    Review and approve payroll

    Move approved work into payroll review, resolve exceptions, and keep payment operations connected to the tour record.

  6. Report

    Follow finance and project health

    Give authorized teams reporting and project-health context for the route, crew activity, payroll, and remaining closeout work.

Know what is required next

Payroll

Review tour inputs with their source context
