World Cup 2010...A Fortress Success
09.07.2010After 4 weeks and 64 games the World Cup has ended and it has been a total success for Fortress and our Smart Stadium technology. Hundreds of thousands of fans from around the world have converged on Soccer City, Cape Town, and Bloemfontein Stadiums over the last few weeks to watch their team play. All were processed and validated without a hitch by our Smart Stadium technology. The Fortress solution is designed to cope with the most complex of situations and to provide faultless match day operations. Once again the Fortress systems showed their strength and reliability.
“When you run a stadium like Soccer City and an event like the World Cup you need to have systems that you know will work. The Fortress systems gave us total control over our Stadium. The real time views, advanced diagnostics tools and queue analysis software enabled us to effortlessly deal with the large numbers that came to see the World Cup. With the support of the professional on-the-ground Fortress team, I could rest easy in the knowledge that ticketing and access control, at least, would simply work.” (Soccer City, Stadium Director).
