Arts Alliance Media (AAM), the global leader in digital cinema software and support, has agreed a new software partnership with Cinema 21, or Cinema XXI, the largest cinema chain in Indonesia, and their affiliated integrator, PT Megatech Engineering, enabling Lifeguard to monitor, manage and optimise hardware and consumables.
Offering a panoramic view of their network's devices, Lifeguard, AAM's versatile Hardware Management System, will streamline Cinema 21’s operations with intelligence and finesse, swiftly addressing potential show-stopping issues and enhancing business insights via robust automation and reporting capabilities.
By leveraging the combined power of Screenwriter, AAM's flagship Theatre Management System (TMS), and their latest addition, Lifeguard, Cinema 21 and Megatech will seamlessly manage content and hardware for 1,312 screens across 248 locations, fostering operational excellence throughout their network.
“As market-leaders committed to providing first-class viewing experiences, it’s our responsibility to ensure we have the required tools to maintain efficient, error-free operations,” said Mr. Suryo Suherman, CEO of Cinema 21. “By integrating Lifeguard alongside Screenwriter at the heart of our operations, we can start to measure hardware performance and strengthen our support processes.”
A cloud-based hardware monitoring and management platform, Lifeguard provides exhibitors with critical information to optimise hardware, reduce the cost of operations, and resolve issues faster with precision. With over 40 intelligence reports, proactive equipment maintenance, technician scheduling functions, and automated lamp alerts and lifecycle management, exhibitors can augment their NOC and support processes to refine daily operations from one central hub.
