The Venues and Facilities service offering can be broken down into six phases across the three key stages of the venue or facility lifecycle as shown below: 

At gemba we work with clients such as venue and facility managers, local and state governments, and various sport and recreation organisations, to plan and develop their respective venues and facilities, or to enhance and improve the social and financial performance of these assets.

With a broad range of experience across the Sports and Entertainment industry, the Venues and Facilities team have a great appreciation government policy and objectives, investment logic and decision making, business and operational levers, and the importance of venue economics for sports and entertainment organisations. 

To complement our intellectual capital and market insights, we use both propriety research, such as gSER and gASP, as well as bespoke research to measure participation rates and trends, usage and consumption patterns, and barriers to participation in order to analyse and forecast demand potential for new and existing venues and facilities.
