TechnipFMC — Annual Events Programme

120 peopleLivingston, ScotlandAnnual programme

This case study covers how Event Collection delivered TechnipFMC's annual corporate events programme over several years: from staff celebration days and team building activities to gala dinners and milestone celebrations. TechnipFMC is one of the world's leading energy technology companies, with a major presence in Livingston, Scotland.

The Brief

TechnipFMC wanted a trusted event management partner to plan and deliver their annual events calendar, rewarding their team, strengthening relationships across departments, and including families in a celebration of the company's achievements.

Key requirements included multiple activity zones running simultaneously, professional catering, live entertainment, and complete event management from setup to pack-down. TechnipFMC wanted to focus entirely on enjoying the day, not managing it.

The programme needed to be consistent across years, yet feel fresh and exciting each time. TechnipFMC's team had experienced generic corporate events before and wanted something tailored to their company culture and values.

What We Delivered

Event Collection designed and delivered a comprehensive annual events programme for TechnipFMC, covering team building days, corporate fun days, gala dinners, and milestone celebrations. Each event was tailored to the specific objectives for that quarter, ensuring variety and measurable impact throughout the year.

The Result

The event was a resounding success. Every single person, from the youngest children to the senior leadership team, was engaged and entertained throughout the day. The atmosphere created shared memories that strengthened team bonds across departments.

TechnipFMC have continued to work with Event Collection, making the annual events programme one of the most anticipated dates in the company calendar. Staff feedback consistently highlights the quality of delivery, the variety of activities, and the seamless coordination that allows everyone to simply enjoy the experience.

The partnership has grown beyond individual events into a strategic relationship where Event Collection manages TechnipFMC's entire corporate events calendar. This continuity means we understand their culture, their people, and their expectations intimately, delivering consistently strong results that improve with each programme.

“Event Collection have delivered our annual events programme for several years. Their reliability, professionalism, and high standards are second to none. They handle everything so we can focus on enjoying the day.”

Why an Annual Events Programme Works

The TechnipFMC partnership demonstrates something we've seen consistently across our longest-running client relationships: the value of an annual events programme compounds over time. In the first year, we learn your culture, your people, and what excites your team. By the second year, we're anticipating needs before they're expressed. By the third, we're proactively suggesting innovations that keep the programme fresh.

For TechnipFMC, this meant that each year's events built on the success of the previous year. Activities that resonated were refined and expanded. New formats were introduced to keep the experience surprising. The result is a programme that feels unique to TechnipFMC's identity, not a generic corporate package.

The family inclusion element has been particularly powerful. When employees see their children enjoying a professionally run event and realise the company made it happen, the loyalty that generates lasts far longer than any bonus or email of thanks. TechnipFMC understood this from the outset, and it's one of the reasons their staff retention and engagement scores have remained strong throughout the partnership.

If you're considering an annual events programme for your organisation, the TechnipFMC case study shows what's possible when you invest in the relationship as well as the events themselves. Get in touch to discuss how we can build a programme around your team's goals and culture.
