The Melbourne Cricket Ground, known to fans as simply ‘The G’, is Australia’s largest and most iconic sporting venue. With a history dating back to 1853, the Melbourne Cricket Ground holds the record for the largest ever attendance at a baseball match and it held a staggering ground record of 121,000 patrons for the AFL football final in 1970. On game days upwards of 100,000 fans as well as thousands of catering and hospitality staff, hundreds of security officers, police, medical teams, and media crews, as well as sports teams and match officials, flood the site. Physically this is a huge venue, with multiple levels above and below ground and not surprisingly, given its age, significant legacy infrastructure.

In a threatening global security environment, iconic public sites like the Melbourne Cricket Ground need special protection. After a site survey it was found that the existing access control system not only needed to be replaced, but taking the new threat level into account, access control needed to be significantly expanded to protect equipment and infrastructure across the site. In addition, a management solution was required that could weave the existing surveillance gear together with the new access control system, as well as other electronic security and building management solutions. Complicating matters was the fact the MCG is in a process of long term upgrade.

This meant that whatever solution was implemented, it had to be scalable and completely future proof. After taking on the role 3 years ago, MCG Security manager, Andy Frances, quickly realised the key to the MCG’s electronic security future would be an open architecture networked solution. But he saw that successful implementation of such a system would not only require choosing the right hardware and software. Uncharted 2. It would also mean close co-operation with the MCG’s IT department, and the selection of an integrator capable of working in a networked environment. “We made the decision early on that despite the fact IT and security departments traditionally don’t work well together, at the MCG the IT department was going to be a key player in our upgrade project,” says Frances.

“Every version of every major product we have used here has almost been a beta or has been the first of its kind in Australia. We have put ourselves out there a little with the product and the decision has paid off” A key challenge for Frances was that before he arrived the site had never had a security manager. This had led to piecemeal development – the MCG’s electronic security and building management systems were incompatible with each other and the multiple layers of cabling infrastructure that sprawled across the site were a complete unknown.
