Connecting Teams, Powering Live Sports - BMG Sets a New Standard for Remote Sports Production

Odin

Broadcast Management Group (BMG) teamed up with RTS Intercom Systems to make sports broadcasting faster, smoother, and more reliable. In live sports, every second counts, but traditional intercom systems often slow things down. Communication between directors, crews, and remote teams can be clunky, which puts pressure on production. BMG solved this by using RTS Trunking technology to connect everyone - whether they were in a truck, control room, or working from home.

With RTS, any intercom device could talk to any other instantly. Remote producers could jump in from their laptops or panels and communicate directly with camera crews wearing ROAMEO beltpacks on site. This meant decisions could be made in real time, no matter where team members were located. Even better, the system didn’t lock people into static channels. Instead, resources could be reassigned on the fly to match the changing needs of each game.

The results spoke for themselves. Setup time dropped by 30% thanks to automation, and productions ran without delays or communication failures. The system scaled easily for everything from small events to major sporting broadcasts, giving teams the flexibility to focus on creativity and storytelling rather than technical hurdles. In the end, BMG showed how powerful the right technology can be. By embracing RTS’s Trunking system, they set a new standard for live sports production - one that’s faster, smarter, and built for the future.
