HOLLYWOOD, Fla. — July 14, 2009 — ScheduALL today announced that Arqiva,
which provides the bulk of infrastructure behind television and radio transmission in the
U.K., is using ScheduALL’s ScheduLINK transmission management and optimization
software to streamline the booking and allocation of resources for ad hoc and nonpermanent
satellite and transmission services around the globe. Used across Arqiva’s
occasional use and satellite newsgathering (SNG) business, as well as its numerous
studios and outside broadcast (OB) units, ScheduLINK software simplifies the
coordination and provision of transmission packages of any size and complexity
“We do much more than sell our customers a simple uplink; we offer end-to-end satellitetransmission services that can be quite complex, and we use ScheduLINK softwareextensively across our business to schedule the people, facilities, equipment, bandwidth,switching arrangements, and other resources that make these services possible,” saidJulian Portman, finance director at Arqiva Satellite and Media. “ScheduLINK simplifiesour operations by automating previously manual processes, providing critical projectdetails and instructions to staff and suppliers, and enabling bookings across ourEuropean and U.S. operations centers.”
“We do much more than sell our customers a simple uplink; we offer end-to-end satellite
transmission services that can be quite complex, and we use ScheduLINK software
extensively across our business to schedule the people, facilities, equipment, bandwidth,
switching arrangements, and other resources that make these services possible,” said
Julian Portman, finance director at Arqiva Satellite and Media. “ScheduLINK simplifies
our operations by automating previously manual processes, providing critical project
details and instructions to staff and suppliers, and enabling bookings across our
European and U.S. operations centers.”
“Arqiva has experienced substantial growth in the past five years, and ScheduLINK has
allowed us to manage our resources and deliver services in a comprehensive and
competitive manner. This has opened up significant opportunities to win business for live
events and sports coverage,” said Portman.
Arqiva’s ScheduLINK system serves as a common solution for efficient management of
the resources required for occasional use services, whether for studio production and
transmission, mobile production for sports and live events, newsgathering in the field, or
delivery of content to or from a post-production facility. By facilitating bookings across
countries and different parts of Arqiva’s business, ScheduLINK enables the company to
expand its service offering, improve competitiveness against local providers, and
increase overall opportunities for revenue generation.
With better information and reporting on how well internal and external resources are
being used in service provision, Arqiva can better determine when to own or buy a
resource. ScheduLINK automates the recording and issue of purchase orders for
resources and sets out job requirements for internal staff and suppliers. This information
also allows staff to see how bottlenecks in resource use and allocation directly affect the
company’s productivity and profitability
“The ad hoc satellite business demands that providers be ready to spring into action at a
moment’s notice,” added Portman. “In giving us flexibility and agility in scheduling and
resource management for ad hoc and non-permanent services, ScheduLINK is a key
business tool that puts Arqiva on a competitive footing now and going forward.”
“Arqiva’s extensive implementation of ScheduLINK demonstrates how a sophisticated
and flexible ERM solution can be adapted to provide dramatic operational efficiencies
and valuable versatility in meeting the unique needs of each client and booking,” said
Barry Lyne, EMEA managing director for ScheduALL. “We’re very pleased to be working
with Arqiva as the company continues to apply the benefits of a broad enterprise
resource management and scheduling solution across its occasional and ad hoc satellite
services.”
