Request for information / Yle TV Studio Live Production Server Solution (EVS-VIA)

OBJECT OF THE RFI Yleisradio Oy (later also "Yle") is preparing a procurement of a Television Studio Live Production Server Solution. The Live production system is a solution that records and plays out a variety of video media content via SDI- or IP-signal interfaces, and shares the content across diverse platforms and production environments. Yle is currently using EVS video servers for the live production systems, which the new solution will be integrated to. Due to the technical compatiblity to the existing systems the new systems must be EVS-VIA -based solutions. The procurement will consist of the needed television studio live production products, such as: - XS-Via live recording servers; - IPDirectors; - XTAccessess and; - the related software, licenses and services. The quantities to be purchased will be specified in the final invitation to tender. The new systems will replace the existing live production video recording solution with a new solution, which can adapt to changing needs of the productions. Additionally, in future recordings could be delivered to other production systems. Yle is now looking for interested suppliers, who can offer and deliver the requested products (EVS VIA Solutions), to participate in further market dialogue. Please see the part "Other matters" for details.
