All Other Support Services

NAICS 561990 · Administrative and Support Services · SBA size standard: $16.5 million average annual receipts

All other support services firms handle outsourced operational tasks such as trade-show booth setup and teardown, on-site inventory handling, permit coordination and post-event reporting. For a firm that manages recurring trade-show booth setup, breakdown, inventory counts and local permit paperwork, the specialists turn client requests into confirmed scopes, scopes into crew and equipment schedules, schedules into dispatch routes and safety checklists, inventory logs into reorder lists and maintenance plans, and completion reports into billing and client reorders. Local rules, crew certifications, equipment condition and client-specific requirements stay with the owner and crew leads.

What makes this business different

  • Client-specific requirements that vary by event type, venue and city including exact booth dimensions, power needs, branding elements and access restrictions
  • Recurring and one-off jobs with tight deadlines for setup before show hours and teardown after close
  • Management of rented, owned and consumable equipment that must be tracked by serial number where required, maintained and replenished between jobs
  • Dispatch of crews and vehicles to multiple sites per day with accurate arrival windows and load-out times
  • Venue permits, insurance certificates, union labor rules, safety documentation and method statements that must be ready at each location
  • Post-event inventory counts, damage reports, temperature or condition logs and client feedback that drive reorders and billing
  • Seasonal spikes around major trade shows, conferences and holidays that require scaling crews and equipment without over-committing owned assets
