G4S to secure Sun Life Stadium in Miami Florida

The new contract will see G4S install and operate Symmetry, a G4S-designed access control, high resolution video and security system, currently in use at the headquarters of the US Department of Defense in Arlington, Virginia and at around 100 US Marine Corp bases across the world.

From 2016, G4S will also develop and manage a state of the art security command centre which will be the hub of Sun Life Stadium's security operations.

'Delivering a positive fan experience is our top priority, and for the Dolphins organization that starts with ensuring the highest levels of security,' said Todd Boyan, Senior Vice President of Operations for the Miami Dolphins. 'G4S takes a progressive approach to security management - creating continuity in a one-stop solution. With G4S, we will stay ahead of the curve to maintain maximum safety and comfort for our fans.'

'Many sporting facilities operate with multiple security vendors, which can create complexity and risk; with G4S, the 65,000-seater Sun Life Stadium benefits from the scale of a global leader in security solutions - one provider with one integrated offering.'

'We believe this stadium will become a model for how security is delivered and managed at other major sporting and events venues.' said John Kenning, Regional CEO, North America at G4S. 'We're working with the Dolphins' security and IT functions to migrate from individual systems to a comprehensive and integrated single security offering,'

G4S is the leading global, integrated security company, specialising in the provision of security services and solutions to customers. Our mission is to create material, sustainable value for our customers and shareholders by being the supply partner of choice in all of our markets.
