LARGE FEC PROJECT PLANNING
1,000 m² FEC Project Planning Guide
A 1,000 m² FEC is a coordinated venue project rather than a single equipment order. Attraction strategy, building services, commercial spaces, logistics and installation sequencing should be managed through defined approvals.
BUYER DECISION
What matters most
Establish the business concept and zone hierarchy first, then coordinate each equipment package with the building, visitor flow and opening schedule.
PLANNING FRAMEWORK
Turn the idea into a workable scope.
Use these checkpoints before comparing layouts, quotations and supplier promises.
Model visitor capacity
Capacity affects much more than the play floor.
- Arrival and ticketing peaks
- Shoe storage and circulation
- Parent and spectator seating
- Toilets, parties and food service
Coordinate building interfaces
Equipment decisions affect multiple design disciplines.
- Structure and loading
- Fire strategy and exits
- Power, lighting and data
- HVAC, acoustics and maintenance access
Control approvals and delivery
A large custom project needs a visible decision path.
- Concept and scope approvals
- Zone-by-zone production release
- Packing and container sequence
- Site readiness and installation handover

BUYER QUESTIONS
Before you request a quotation
These answers help set expectations before concept and engineering work begins.
How should a 1,000 m² FEC project start?+
Start with the audience, business model, complete architectural plan, budget and opening target. The first design stage should establish zoning and project responsibilities before detailed equipment selection.
Can equipment production begin before the building is complete?+
It can, but critical dimensions, interfaces and approvals must be stable. A change-control process is important when building work and equipment production overlap.
How should a large FEC be packed for installation?+
Packing should follow the agreed zone and installation sequence, with clear labels, packing records and a plan for unloading and temporary storage at the site.
