U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Renews Webcasting Contract with Online Video Service

 

March 15, 2007 - Online Video Service, Inc. (OVS), the recognized leader in Internet broadcasting for public affairs, reported today that it has renewed its contract with the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).

OVS has had the exclusive contract to broadcast the NRC’s proceedings on the Internet since 2004. To date, the company has delivered more than 80 webcasts and an extensive archive of on demand content with a zero percent failure rate – a notable accomplishment in a live broadcasting context in which the stakes are high and the risks are numerous.

“We are proud to renew our contract with the NRC,” commented OVS Chairman and CEO, Tim Treanor. “The innovative, remotely managed webcasting solution we have in place at NRC was the first of its kind in 2004 and remains the ‘gold standard’ for Internet broadcasting among premier federal agencies.”

OVS has distinguished itself from competitors by offering remotely managed webcasting, a proprietary Internet broadcasting platform that the company developed with the help of leading experts in government webcasting. Most competitors typically either send a webcast team to a client’s event venue or broadcast audio from a conference call on the Internet – services which OVS also provides.

OVS has also successfully developed protocols and methodologies that ensure full compliance with the highest levels of federal security, such as those measures in place at the tightly controlled NRC headquarters in Rockville, Maryland where certain OVS equipment is located. A complete archive of NRC webcasts can be found online at http://video.nrc.gov.

About the NRC
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) was created as an independent agency by Congress in 1974 to enable the nation to safely use radioactive materials for beneficial civilian purposes while ensuring that people and the environment are protected. The NRC regulates commercial nuclear power plants and other uses of nuclear materials, such as in nuclear medicine, through licensing, inspection and enforcement of its requirements. More information about the NRC is at www.nrc.gov.
