Dear [Name] :

I would like to attend RELIABLE PLANT Conference and Exhibition in April 2013. I have reviewed the agenda as well as the list of exhibiting companies and feel the return on the investment would be a major benefit as the event aligns directly to the priorities of our department [insert your priorities here] .

It's an excellent value considering the level of workshops and learning sessions which are being offered. Over the course of 3 days, I'll have access to:

  • Four pre-conference workshops
    • Fundamentals for Designing and Procuring Equipment to Increase Reliability
    • The Basics of Lubricants
    • How to Interpret Oil Analysis Reports and Set Effective Limits
    • Lubrication Excellence Manager’s Summit - Presented by Jim Fitch, CEO of Noria Corporation
  • 80+ learning sessions and end-user case studies
  • Opening General Session and keynote presentation featuring Vietnam P.O.W. Guy Gruters
  • ICML and SMRP onsite certification opportunities
  • 20+ hours of conferring with exhibitors such as Air Sentry, Colfax, Emerson Process Management, HY-PRO, Lubrication Engineers, MP Filtri, Noria Corporation, Shell Lubricants and SKF
  • 25+ hours of networking with peers from other companies
  • Unlimited exposure to emerging technologies, trends and processes designed to generate
    immediate and bottom-line cost savings
  • I'd like to request your approval for the registration fee and travel expenditures. The full conference price is $995, but:

    Option A: can be reduced by $100, if I register by March 14, 2013

    Option B: can be reduced to $550, if we send a group of 3 or more

    Option C: can be significantly reduced to $350, if we send a group of 10 or more

    RELIABLE PLANT registration includes: conference attendance, all learning sessions including opening keynote, conference proceedings in CD-ROM format, exhibit hall access, daily Continental breakfasts, lunches in the exhibit hall (Tues-Weds), daily refreshment breaks, meet and greet opening reception on Tues., and a networking reception on Weds.

    Here are my estimated conference costs:

    Airfare: $ [xxx]
    Transportation: $ [xxx]
    Hotel @ $145 per night: $ [xxx]

    Meals:
    (Breakfast and lunch included in conference fee)

    $ [xxx]
    Conference Fee: $ [xxx] – based on Option A, B, or C above
    Pre-Conference Workshops $ [xxx] – based on selected workshops
    TOTAL: $ [xxxx]

    There are a number of strategic and tactical "how-to" presentations on cost saving technologies and processes and how to cost-effectively expand our existing capabilities so we can deliver more with limited resources. A few of the sessions that I plan to attend include [List Top 3 Sessions Here] .

    I've reviewed the exhibitor list and there are a number of vendors participating that I plan to evaluate for future use. In addition to browsing the exhibit hall and viewing product demonstrations, I plan on scheduling private meetings onsite with
    [Vendor A, Vendor B, Vendor C] .

    I'll also be able to build new business relationships and share best practices with other attendees working on the same priorities. This event has case study presentations and key learning sessions on topics relevant to the industry, but also topics that specifically address our priorities including
    [Topic A, Topic B, Topic C] .

    Other staff members in our organization will also be able to benefit as I will meet with the team when I return to relay recommendations and action items, and circulate a detailed Trip Report.

    Please accept this proposal to attend RELIABLE PLANT 2013 – I'm confident that we will receive a significant return on our investment.

    Thank you for your consideration.
