Method

The same scope before and after.

At each gala, we counted the hours of preparation and hours on site. We measured this work before and after Eventblox.

In Barreiro, the difference between 1,216 and 320 hours is 896 hours. In Almada, the difference between 738 and 270 hours is 468 hours. These are the two measurements of hours.

Oeiras, Loulé and Polícia Judiciária are not included in this total. No hours were allocated to these clients.

Measured cases

Each case presents the volume of the gala, the hours before, the hours after and the difference.

Operational workload

Team time accumulates before the room opens.

Preparing awards, guests and on-site operations takes team time. The Barreiro and Almada measurements make that workload visible and show the difference across the two completed galas.

These results belong to those organisations and editions. A demo lets us analyse your gala process without applying these values to another context.

Frequently asked questions

How were the hours counted?

We counted preparation hours and on-site hours before and after Eventblox. Barreiro went from 1,216 to 320 hours. Almada went from 738 to 270 hours. We compared the same scope at each gala.

Do these results apply to my gala?

They are not a prediction. They describe two city council galas. In the demo, we analyse the process and the size of your gala without applying these values.

Why does Oeiras appear out of hours?

In Oeiras, we measured the pace of the ceremony: 340 awards for 522 participants in 1 hr 30 min, with one award recipient on stage every 16 seconds. We do not measure working hours, so Oeiras is outside the measurements of Barreiro and Almada.
