Post-Event Analysis

A post-event analysis occurs when a service professional, and specifically the event captain of a service professional team, conducts a review of an event. The bar captain performs their own version of a post-event analysis as a post-event review.

After the bar captain debriefs with the bar staff, they should complete a post-event review. This review includes:

  • Documenting any damage to the venue, equipment, or inventory outstanding requests or needs, and/or peculiarities with respect to documentation (e.g., the rental list or beverage inventory sheet)

  • Communicating all documented details to the event captain and to the client or relevant venue contact

  • Ensuring understanding and satisfaction with the client or relevant venue contact before departing

  • Communicating and specifics in service that should be shared to ensure team is better prepared for then next event at the location, or in general.
