Aggreko Performs Like a True Champion at the
World Championship of Cricket
The Customer Challenge
March, 2007 kicked off the opening ceremonies for the highly
anticipated World Championship Tournament of Cricket, conducted
throughout nine Caribbean countries across twelve different
venues.
This global event brought spectators and
participants from around the world and was broadcast to millions –
its biggest viewing audience ever. Supplying power and cooling for
this broadly dispersed event required meeting tight shipping
schedules, accommodating the needs of multiple organizing
committees and managing diverse international tax and customs
requirements.
The Aggreko Solution
Despite decades of experience with global
events, the
Aggreko Event Services team considered
this to be one of the most challenging it ever faced in terms of
logistics and planning complexity.
But in true Aggreko fashion, the team took on
the challenge with enthusiasm and professionalism, enjoying the
opportunity to work with different island cultures, personalities,
committees and budgets, while still delivering a consistent product
that exceeded expectations.
The World Championship Tournament of Cricket
utilized:
Seventeen technicians were stationed
throughout the islands to set up power and A/C for the entire
project, including utilities for the international TV broadcast,
player and media tents, concessions, hospitality and security.
The Benefit to the Customer
By getting people and equipment where they
needed to be and installing and operating equipment smoothly and
reliably, Aggreko ensured that Cricket was the only thing causing
excitement during this championship event.
