DCIP brought its Cinergy Event Monitoring technology to CinemaCon after Fathom Events completed a nationwide rollout across more than 1,000 theater locations.
From CinemaCon 2019 in Las Vegas, Digital Cinema Implementation Partners, LLC (DCIP) announced that Fathom Events has completed the rollout of its Cinergy Event Monitoring system across a nationwide network of more than 1,000 theater locations.
DCIP is demonstrating the technology during CinemaCon at Caesars Palace, giving members of the theatrical exhibition industry a look at the system Fathom now uses to monitor and control its in-theater events from a centralized command center.
Cinergy Event Monitoring allows Fathom to track the status and health of presentations across its network, control playback and manage scheduling from a central location. The system can also provide root cause analysis when an event encounters a failure, helping operators identify problems across theaters carrying the same presentation.
"We are very excited to complete the rollout of Cinergy's Event Monitoring, which allows us to easily track and control our in-theater events," said Lynne Schmidt, Vice President of Operations and Strategic Partnerships for Fathom Events. "Event Monitoring is an important part of our business, and Cinergy helps us to ensure the best possible presentation for our guests."
For Fathom, which specializes in event cinema and limited-run theatrical presentations, the technology provides centralized oversight of screenings that can take place simultaneously at theaters throughout the country.
The rollout expands an existing relationship between Fathom and DCIP. Fathom had already been using Cinergy Event Booking and Cinergy Event Billing, which connect with its financial systems to manage operations across the organization.
"Our friends at Fathom have been great partners, and we highly value our ongoing relationship with Lynne and her team," DCIP President and CEO Rich Manzione said. "The Event Monitoring system that we've developed further demonstrates the versatility of DCIP's Cinergy platform and our ability to meet the needs of a diverse customer base."
The completed Fathom rollout gives CinemaCon attendees a real-world example of Cinergy operating at scale as DCIP demonstrates the Event Monitoring platform on the convention floor.
