The Project

The project comprised of multiple base build infrastructure elements as well as an extension to a large section of studio on ADMC’s campus, housing the state-of-the-art HD 24/7 new studio with the accompanying newsroom. Technical rooms included the NOC, Gallery, Graphics, Ingest, Edit Suites, TCFO, VOB, and TX all supported via the CAR room, with content being both up and down linked via a teleport (all of which was built to tier III UI standards). In addition to the technical production facilities, the studio complex included green rooms,  makeup facilities, 24/7 staff catering facility, operational staff and senior management offices.

Our Appointment

With technical expertise provided from Sky News UK and commercial acumen provided by ADMC, we were appointed to provide our expertise in studio specific project management inclusive of ensuring the facility met the exacting Sky News standards for quality, technical resilience and reliability, and a publicly committed to ‘Live On Air’ deadline. One of the critical scope factors for our team was to ensure compliance with the Tier III design and to guarantee that the infrastructure redundancies were executed accurately throughout the build environment. We successfully delivered the project within an extremely tight and challenging programme.

The Benefit

Our particular experience within the mission critical infrastructure sector enabled the project team to ensure BSkyB’s live broadcast performance standards and to establish the guidelines  from an early stage while working with the development team and main contractor. As such, we successfully handed over the project to Sky News Arabia’s complete satisfaction, leading to a client reference calling 3SixtyConsult a “World Class” PMC Consultancy. The professional relationships built on this project has led to many subsequent projects and further successes not only within the media and broadcast sector but in a number of other sectors that also require this specific capability within technically complex project delivery.
