+An essential part of a programming contest is of course a system that checks the exercises. Information on how to set up a judge system you can look at the [[BAPC/Tech#Judging_system|tech page]]. Make sure to start in time with this (at least two to three weeks in advance) to prevail the situation. If any problems are encountered or a server can't be facilitated, this should be determined in an early stage. The BAPC committee can then be contacted for support and sometimes the committee can open up their own server for use by the participants of the local preliminary. Note that if the BAPC committee is contacted on a short notice, they might not be able to help any longer.

 It is important to note that the location should be arranged as soon as possible, as it should be conformed with the local facility management to make sure the participants can gain entrance to the building (as the preliminaries take place on Saturdays) and the facility management is aware of people using the building. Organisers are encouraged to start deliberating with the facility management as soon as possible to prevent any problems. Allowing the facility management more time to take your request into consideration will greatly increase the chance on finding a suitable location.

Usually this is already the case as the students use the same tools during their regular practicals.

Usually this has to be done in deliberation with the system administrator. For more information about the required software, check out the [[BAPC/Tech|tech page]].

		+	The most important thing that should not be taken lightly when organising a preliminary round. The location should have enough space to house all participants. As every team can consist of at most three people, there should be enough space at every workstation to give room to all team members. Usually one or several regular computer rooms should be sufficient for a preliminary round.

 *One week in advance: judge systems ready.
 The programming assignments for the preliminary are sent by the jury and will arrive roughly one or two weeks before the contest itself to allow for enough time to prepare the judge system. Make sure the assignments are already present in the system a few days in advance, so problems with the judge systems can be discovered in an early stage, allowing for more time to solve them.
