Quotes and contracts go out as PDFs in the client's language, signed online from the client portal. Invoicing, deposits and accounting export follow, in line with practice in United Kingdom.
Every show fired in Durham becomes a job file: client, site, date, firing plan, quote, contract, permit, invoice. The pipeline shows where each deal stands, from the first call to the final payment.
Pyrotechnic stock is tracked by lot, with expiry, calibre and net explosive content: you know what leaves for the Durham show and what stays in the magazine, without counting by hand.
Fireworks regulations in Durham
Unlike France, Italy or Spain, England, Wales and Scotland have no administrative permit to fire a professional fireworks display. The Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 requires employers and the self-employed to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the safety of persons affected by their activity; it is this general duty, enforced by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and local authorities, that governs firing.
