Build your event run sheet

Choose your event details to draft the schedule. Review the timing, owners, food windows, and backup plan before sharing it.

Example templates

Two simple templates that still work

If the builder does not run, use these as starting points. Adjust the time, owner, and note columns before sending to any vendor or internal approver.

Half-day shape

Best when the activity is the main experience and food stays simple.

  • Arrival and briefing
  • Main activity block
  • Water break
  • Final rounds
  • Photo, prizes, refreshments, close

Full-day shape

Best when headcount, food, travel, or leadership moments need more room.

  • Vendor and participant arrival
  • Welcome and safety briefing
  • Two activity blocks
  • Meal window and lighter close
  • Recognition, photo, dismissal

Red flags

Push the schedule wider or simplify the brief when these stack up.

  • Outdoor plan without a sheltered branch
  • Meal timing not confirmed
  • Transport owner missing
  • Leadership speech longer than the buffer
  • 200+ people with no team-splitting plan
Owner checklist

Hand off the decisions

A useful handoff names the decision, its deadline, the contact or source to check, and who needs the update. Put those details beside the schedule instead of leaving them in separate chats.

Arrival

Name the meeting point, pickup points, vehicle contacts, bus-bay access, arrival order, and late-arrival rule. Use the Transport & Arrival Planner for the detailed movement brief.

Weather

Name the forecast source, decision time, sheltered or indoor branch, and who tells the venue, facilitator, transport lead, and host.

Photos

Name the shot list, photo lead, group-gathering cue, leadership placement, weather-safe photo spot, and release time.

Singapore checks

Make uncertainty visible

A run sheet cannot guarantee weather, permits, food outcomes, or venue behaviour. Its job is to make the decision points visible before the day starts.

Singapore weather systems Use weather risk as a planning input, especially for outdoor or semi-outdoor flows. SFA catered meals guidance Keep food delivery, holding time, and service windows visible in the run sheet. MUIS halal guide If certified-halal food is required, verify the caterer instead of relying on vague labels. GoBusiness licence finder Permit and licence questions depend on venue, setup, food, entertainment, and public-space use.

Use this with the rest of the planning stack

The run sheet should not decide the whole event alone. Pair it with quote, venue, weather, and activity-fit checks.

FAQ

Run-sheet questions to check

Use these when you need to explain why the timing document matters before the event feels complicated.

What should a team-building run sheet include?

Include timing, owner, location, activity block, setup notes, food window, transport note, weather branch, leadership cues, and emergency contacts. Your planning copy can be detailed; participant comms should stay simpler.

How much buffer should I add?

For a small indoor half-day event, 10 to 15 minutes between major blocks may be enough. For larger, outdoor, catered, or offsite events, use larger buffers because movement, food, weather, and late arrivals stack quickly.

Should food sit inside the run sheet?

Yes. Food timing affects energy, queues, dietary checks, and venue clean-up. Treat catered meals as event blocks, not background logistics.

Can Cohesion use this run sheet in Event Planner?

Use the builder to create a rough flow, then send it into Event Planner. Cohesion can adjust the activity format, facilitator flow, food timing, and fallback plan around the real venue and headcount.

Who should own the weather and arrival decisions?

Name one event lead for the overall schedule, then assign separate arrival, weather, food, and photo owners when those jobs apply. Give each person a decision time, the contact they need, and the person who takes over if the plan changes.

Next step

Send the run sheet before it feels final

A rough run sheet is useful because it exposes missing owners, tight transitions, food risk, weather decisions, and leadership cues. Send the draft into Event Planner and let Cohesion tighten the facilitation flow around the real venue and group.
