The Olympic Games are a complex mix of technology, processes and people. Not only is there the scale and complexity of the project, covering many clients, sites and systems, but it is also a multi-supplier project with many varied dependencies.

This requires a blend of specialist skills and experience backed up by a complete understanding of just what the organizers, competitors and audience expect.

As lead integrator, project manager and IT operations manager, Atos is ultimately responsible for the entire IT infrastructure of the Games. The focus is on three key IT areas:

The lessons learnt in such a critical and high-pressure environment enable us to improve the quality of our services and improve our capacity to deliver complex projects in all other industries and markets. Atos has made these commitments to the International Olympic Committee 4 times since 2002 and met all expectations. We are committed to performing at this intense level in Vancouver in 2010 and London in 2012. Just imagine what we can do for you.
