Person responsible for event technology
When the Places of Assembly Ordinance requires a person responsible for event technology, Jens Diefenbach takes on this role for your event.
Responsibility under the Places of Assembly Ordinance
For many events, the law requires a person responsible for event technology to be present. This person ensures that the event technology installations are set up, operated and dismantled safely.
Jens Diefenbach is a certified master technician for event technology and takes on this task for you as the person responsible for event technology. With more than 25 years of practical experience, he knows the requirements of large trade fairs, arenas and open-air events as well as those of corporate events and congresses.
We work directly for operators of halls, places of assembly and venues and for event organisers. Ideally, involve us early: this way, safety-related questions can be clarified during planning rather than during set-up, when changes cost time and money.

How we work together
1. Enquiry
You tell us about the event, venue, dates and the planned technical set-up.
2. Clarification
We clarify which requirements apply to your event and which attendance times are necessary.
3. Assignment
We take on responsibility on site, during set-up, dismantling and operation.
4. Follow-up
On request, we document processes, checks and changes for your records.
Plan early instead of fixing things at short notice
Many questions concerning the person responsible for event technology are decided long before set-up: How large are the stage and performance area? Where do the escape routes run? Which loads are suspended where? If these points are clarified early, there are no unpleasant surprises during set-up.
That is why we combine the role of the person responsible with our planning services. Based on an exact floor plan, surveyed by ourselves with a total station if necessary, we plan structures, lighting, escape routes and seating while keeping the requirements of the Places of Assembly Ordinance in mind.
On site, the person responsible for event technology is your fixed point of contact for all technical matters. He coordinates with the operator and service providers, keeps an eye on safety and documents checks and changes on request. This leaves you free to focus on your guests and your programme.
Safety
Risk assessment included
As the person responsible for event technology, we also carry out the risk assessment for the event technology installations, from set-up and rehearsals through operation to dismantling.
We define the protective measures, coordinate them with operator and organiser and make sure on site that all trades implement them.
