Chengdu Film Production Catering starts with meal windows, confirmed headcounts, dietary requests and the actual delivery and eating arrangements. For a Chengdu shoot continuing outside the city, establish where the crew will take the main meal before committing to a supplier. Give the destination contact the expected arrival and headcount. Ask who reports a delayed contributor or changed route to catering. If the city and regional days have different meal arrangements, identify them separately in the quote and give each day a named production contact.
Chengdu Film Production Catering: build a headcount that can be updated
Count crew, talent, client representatives and other people included in the meal order. Record which groups arrive late or leave early. Name one coordinator who consolidates changes and agrees the final count with the caterer; several departments sending separate numbers can create shortages or duplicate orders.
Fit meals around access and fixed scenes
Show the expected serving window, the location available for eating and any scene that cannot be interrupted. Ask the producer how a delayed take changes the meal plan. Include delivery, unloading and serving time rather than using the delivery vehicle’s arrival as the meal start. For the wider day plan, see Chengdu producer coordination.
Agree changes before the shoot day
Request a written menu, quantities, price basis, payment terms and the cut-off for headcount or timing changes. Discuss what happens if the location moves or the working day extends. Keep main meals separate from continuous refreshments in the scope. For a location move, the Chengdu fixer can coordinate host and crew contacts when included in the booking.
Meal order and delivery record
Provide in the brief: Meal window, confirmed crew headcount, dietary requests, receiving entrance and approved eating area.
Agree the handover: Written order, named receiver, deadline for quantity changes and confirmation of any revised delivery window.
Scope boundary: The scope concerns scheduled main meals. Continuous snacks, drinks and replenishment need a separate craft-services agreement.
