About The Customer
SVT is the largest television broadcaster in Sweden, based in Stockholm. It produces a wide range of programming, from dramas to comedies, live shows to documentaries, sports to news programs. SVT produces approximately 2,000 hours of original programming per year in both HD and SD. The broadcaster operates nearly 30 facilities located throughout Sweden, including four main production centers in Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmo, and Umea. SVT is committed to producing top-quality programming, increasing collaboration among media professionals, and maximizing the value of its media assets.
The Challenge
Stockholm-based SVT, the largest television broadcaster in Sweden, produces approximately 2,000 hours of original programming per year in HD and SD. The challenge was to produce this high-quality programming quickly and cost-effectively. The broadcaster was looking to increase collaboration among media professionals and maximize the value of its media assets. With nearly 30 facilities located throughout Sweden, SVT needed a solution that would enhance collaboration between team members, who needed to share files, projects, and media across the entire network with near instantaneous speed. The broadcaster also wanted to make its systems more efficient and unify the workflow throughout the company.
The Solution
SVT implemented a complete end-to-end Avid workflow based on the Avid MediaCentral platform. The interconnected setup includes nine Avid Interplay | Production asset management systems plus Avid ISIS shared storage systems for digital collaboration, all connected via the same platform. More than 300 Avid editing workstations and 20 Pro Tools systems are also available for video and audio editing at its four main production centers in Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmo, and Umea and at another 25 regional broadcast facilities throughout the country. The four production centers act as the linchpin for this workflow, using Interplay systems for workgroup and proxy capabilities and ISIS systems for simultaneous access to and sharing of projects and media. This setup accommodates virtually any SD and HD format, including DVCPro, DVC Pro HD, and HDCAM SR as SVT continues its move toward an all-HD workflow.

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
