(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
ScheduALL Software to enable NBC Olympics to manage transmission feeds and
resources during its coverage of 2016 Rio Olympics
Stockholm, Sweden - NBC Olympics, a division of the NBC Sports Group, has
selected ScheduALL a Net Insight company, to provide resource and transmission
management for its production of the Games of the XXXI Olympiad, which take
place in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from August 5 - August 21. The announcement was
made today by Craig Lau, VP Technology, NBC Olympics and Fredrik Tumegård, CEO
of Net Insight.
NBC Olympics has turned to ScheduALL for an eighth consecutive Games to deliver
advanced resource management solutions in order to coordinate the highly dynamic
environment of the Games. NBCU will be able to leverage the expertise of
ScheduALL's software and services group to orchestrate the logistics of people,
equipment, locations and transmission feeds.
"For the eighth consecutive Games, ScheduALL has the privilege to contribute to
the success of the NBC Olympics production," said Fredrik Tumegård, CEO of Net
Insight. "We understand that flawless execution of the transmission feed is
incredibly important to the success of NBC Olympics' presentation of the Rio
Games. As a result, many people at ScheduALL dedicate copious amounts of time
ahead of the broadcast preparing for a perfect execution. During the games, we
are proud to have a Senior Implementation Manager travel to Rio de Janeiro to
work alongside NBC Olympics throughout the entirety of the Games."
Lau said: "ScheduAll has provided rock solid reliability in the absolutely
critical environment of managing NBC resources, insuring that our transmissions,
recordings, and production facilities are utilized at maximum efficiency."
Prior to its first ScheduALL implementation for the Athens Olympic Games in
2004, NBC Olympics relied on a manual process for managing and scheduling feeds.
ScheduALL manages critical information such as video router assignments and
satellite uplink scheduling, and automatically passes the information to
downstream systems to facilitate on-air coverage for each feed.
