Brief:

• To Develop a bespoke powered access management project for SIS Live, BBC Sport and TV Asahi
• Guaranteed availability of high quality equipment supported by 24/7 service backup
• Provide specialist truck mounts with tailor made camera cages and camera pods

Location: The British Open Golf Championship

Client: SIS Live/BBC Sport/TV Asahi - value £350m

Our Response:

• We provided event and project Management in liaison with Championship organisers Royal & Ancient, as well as SIS Live and BBC Sport
• Bespoke circular cages fitted to add to broadcasting coverage of course with minimal equipment
• We provided an on-site Project Manager to arrange sensitive access over course with temporary roadway supplier
• We also provided an engineer on location for the 7 days of the project
• The truck mounted platforms on hire included IPAF Trained Operators to manage the usage of the machines

Result:

• Zero downtime for worldwide TV transmission
• A reduction in ‘on course’ machinery with circular camera cages that were able to cover multiple holes. This resulted in an estimated saving of £15K.
