Production Infrastructure

Two Capabilities
One Team

PM1 operates across two capabilities:

Structures and Staging

Live Event Production

Both run under one production management layer. One team holding the full picture from first layout to load-out.

The Foundation

Structures and Staging

  • The physical foundation every event stands on. Stages, grandstands, custom seating configurations, barricade systems, rigging, truss, and decking. Engineered for safety. Designed for the show.
  • Our structures team builds for events where the stakes are visible. Championship press risers built for broadcast. Multi-tiered grandstands for 10,000 seats in a field that was empty 72 hours earlier. Stages engineered for load requirements that don't leave room for guesswork.
  • Every structure starts with a production-minded layout. Not just what fits on the site, but what serves the show. Where the cameras land. Where the audience sits relative to the action. Where the power runs. Where the crew needs access during the event. Those decisions happen before a single piece of equipment moves.
What We Build

Structure and Staging Capabilities

01

Custom stage design and deployment

From standard 4' x 8' StageRight to curves, wedges, and custom configurations. If it holds gear or people, we stock it.

02

Grandstand and bleacher systems

From 50-seat units to large-scale deployments for entire seasons, our high-capacity plank, tip-up, and integrated VIP/ADA seating systems install quickly over flat ground, uneven terrain, and obstacles.

03

VIP, ADA, and tiered seating configurations

We design for access from the first touch, so compliance is never an issue. Elevators, ramps, walkways, and true integration happen during discovery, not when you get flagged for compliance.

04

Press risers

Any live shot needs a standard. We designed the standard and build to it. Whether it's the PM1-originated main camera bullnose, the cut riser shot, or the three-level system with built-in mult boxes for audio distribution, we design it, deploy it, and build it anywhere.

05

Barricade and crowd management

From road cases of Tensa to miles of bike rack to concert "crash" barricade with inside and outside turns, we deploy for ingress, egress, safety, and crowd management.

06

Truss Structures

Ground-supported signage, entrance arches, and load-bearing truss systems designed, planned, engineer-stamped, and deployed.

07

Decking and flooring systems

Modular ground covering for mud, sand, and National Park Service properties. Elevated decking that lets rainstorms flow underneath. Bridges over obstacles and uneven terrain. Multi-level tent flooring with sacrificial decks you can screw into. We've got it covered.

08

Commercial Venue Pool covers

Commercial pool covers. Custom-measured in three dimensions. Load-bearing. Engineer-stamped. Surfaces in clear see-through acrylic, standard stage deck, or custom.

09

Mobile stage systems

Mobile stage systems, not as standalone rentals but as part of full live event production. Quick-turn deployment with load-bearing roofs. From SL50s for FOH positions through SAM 555s and larger for A-level artists. Complete with custom loading docks, wings, thrusts, and access.

10

CAD layout and structural engineering coordination

In-house from the first site walk. Every build drawn to scale before it ships, coordinated with venue and permitting authorities, and stamped where the job requires. Production thinking drawn into the plan, not bolted on after.

The Show

Live Event Production

  • Audio. Lighting. Video. Technical direction. Wireless communications. Power distribution. When the event demands the full production package, PM1 delivers the crew and the gear to run it.
  • Our production team brings the technical layer that turns a built space into a live show. Multi-camera switching, concert-grade audio, designed-for-camera lighting, LED walls, projection, and the power to run it all.
  • For events that need more than staging and seating, the same truck that carries the stage carries the production gear. One crew. One load-in. One team accountable for the entire build.
Run of Show

Live Event Production Capabilities

01

Audio systems

Line array, point source, or distributed. Spec'd to the room and the show. Designed, deployed, and mixed by our team.

02

Lighting design and deployment

Conventional, moving, and architectural. TV-balanced where the camera needs it. Designed around the show, programmed by our team, run live.

03

Video

LED walls, projection, camera packages, and switching. Specified to the shot. Integrated into the broadcast.

04

Technical direction and show calling

One voice on comms. One show file. Technical direction and show-calling across every department, live.

05

Wireless comms and intercom systems

Coordinated frequencies and dedicated channels. An intercom built around the show's chain of command, not stacked from stock.

06

Power distribution and generation

Clean power, sized to the load and the venue. Generators, distro, and spider boxes designed into the plan, not dropped on site.

07

Teleprompter and confidence monitoring

Prompter, stage monitors, and confidence feeds operated by crew who've done the job live. Edited on the fly when the copy changes.

08

SOFT GOODS AND FLAGS

Pipe and drape, bunting, and duvetyne for the political cycle and beyond. National and state flags with finials and bases, sized and staged to the protocol. Rigged, dressed, and struck by crew who know the difference.

09

STAGE MANAGEMENT

A stage manager on headset, running talent, transitions, and the floor. Working with the show caller, not replacing them. The person who makes sure the right body is in the right spot when the cue fires.

10

WIRELESS INTERNET AND LIVESTREAM

Event-grade wireless built for the crowd, the crew, and the broadcast. Bonded cellular and hardline uplinks for livestream, sized to the audience and the destination. Delivered so the feed never drops.

One Team

We Find a Way to Say Yes

Most clients work with separate companies for staging, production, and logistics. That means separate timelines, separate contacts, and gaps where things fall through.

PM1 runs both capabilities under one production management layer. The team that designs the stage is talking to the team that hangs the lights. The layout accounts for the audio before the structure is built. When something changes at 2 a.m., one call adjusts the whole plan.

When a build exceeds what's in our inventory, we don't say no. We source from our warehouses first, or from a vetted partner network when the scope calls for it. Either way, we manage to PM1 standards and deliver the full scope as one team.

That's the difference between a production infrastructure partner and a company that drops off equipment.

The PM1 team were truly world-class. Professional and went above all our expectations. They were able to deliver on all of our production needs.
