10 Ways Array Makes Life Science Meeting Planning Easier

The best partner is one that reduces your workload and helps you succeed. Unfortunately, sometimes working with a vendor means taking on extra oversight and management responsibilities and, for planners, this is time they don’t have to spare. Array has been partnering with meeting planners for 20 years, continually improving the ways we make their lives easier. Our combination of life-science focused technology, service and analytics makes work easier for our clients every day.

Here are just 10 ways Array can make things easier for you, too:

  1.   Planning for optimal engagement.
    Array’s platform has multiple engagement features that can be deployed throughout a meeting, but we don’t make you sort through all of these alone. We’ll review an agenda or content with you during the planning phase and make suggestions as to how we can configure the platform to best meet your objectives. 

  2.   Helping you demonstrate the meeting’s value.
    Also during planning, we’ll learn about your reporting needs to ensure we collect the insights that will resonate most with stakeholders. We’ll provide a clear and concise post-meeting report to make it easier for you to prove learning took place, identify potential advocates and bring important new information to stakeholders. 

  3.   Acting as a liaison between other technical teams.
    Array’s technicians often help AV teams set up equipment on site and provide guidance to make the meeting run the way you planned. Since you don’t have to monitor the tech table, you can focus on your clients, put out fires or maybe grab some much-needed nourishment.

  4.   Cutting the cord (to the printer).
    No more late nights or early mornings standing at the printer to create agendas and binders—or to reprint after last-minute edits. All your content and reference materials are loaded on the managed iPads.

  5.   Easing compliance review.
    Our team can send screenshots of the configured platform screens to compliance so you don’t have to submit raw materials to them and it’s easier for them to review. 

  6.   Maintaining consistency across continents.
    Our teams have been on the ground across the globe so can expertly navigate region- or country-based differences in venues, the internet and other elements that can impact a meeting’s technology without taking your time or focus. 

  7.   Problem solving.
    Surprises can happen working with different venues with different technology infrastructures. Our team’s first priority is to resolve issues that arise and, when possible, to do so independently, without interrupting your workflow. 

  8.   Providing extra hands.
    You have a lot to do on the day of the meeting and many hands make light work. For example, our team regularly places seat cards, coasters and other items clients want at each place when they’re putting the iPads on tables, creating the cohesive look you want without you having to go from table-to-table yourself.

  9. Providing turnkey technology.
    You don’t need to know how to set up or operate the Array platform because our expert staff take care of that for you. This includes preventing issues as well as quickly resolving them if they arise.

  10. Freeing you to do what you do best!
    On meeting day, there are important tasks only you can take care of. Since you don’t have to worry about us (or the other things we can take off your plate), you’ll have more time to make sure everything is set up and running as you planned.

Array works with each partner from the planning phase through analyzing insights after a meeting to identify the most important findings. Since we don’t offer a cookie-cutter approach, there are many other ways we make life easier and meetings more insightful for clients. Reach out to let us know if there’s a way you’d like us to do the same for you.
