Colombian Company Implements IP Video Surveillance Across Organization

  • Jan 31, 2011

Verint Systems Inc. recently announced that Bavaria, S.A., a subsidiary of SABMiller in Colombia, is implementing the Nextiva IP video management software, along with Nextiva multiport encoders, video analytics and IP cameras from Verint Video Intelligence Solutions in its distribution, bottling and corporate facilities across Colombia.

With the Verint Nextiva solution, the organization will benefit from robust security and mission-critical loss prevention and quality control capabilities.

SABMiller is one of the largest brewing companies worldwide with more than 200 brand offerings and operations in 75 countries on six continents. Bavaria serves as its industrial operation in Colombia and an important industrial beverage conglomerate in the country. Its brands Águila, Águila Light, Club Colombia, Cola & Pola, Costeña, Costeñita, Miller Genuine Draft, Peroni, Pilsen, Póker, Póker Ligera, Redd’s and Pony Malta are leaders in their respective beverage categories.

In 2008, Bavaria deployed the Nextiva IP video platform at its brand-new Cerveceria del Valle and Tocancipa breweries. Impressed with Nextiva’s advanced capabilities and results, SABMiller built upon its initial investment in Verint technology -- and is now deploying Nextiva Video Management software, video analytics, multiport encoders and IP cameras at 19 distribution centers, four additional breweries, two malting plants and four corporate facilities across Colombia in support of the organization’s security initiatives.

“Bavaria, S.A., a subsidiary of SABMiller in Colombia, has complex facility operations that include process areas, administrative buildings, labs, warehouses, water treatment plants, tanks, bottling areas, and raw materials and storage zones. Using Nextiva, we will be better equipped than ever to secure our facilities and safeguard our operational success,” said Elsa Castaneda, security manager, Bavaria, S.A.

The Nextiva IP video platform will enable SABMiller to capture high-quality video images, optimize bandwidth and storage utilization, leverage flexible video search capabilities,and benefit from programmable video retention and storage.
