NTV, one of Mongolia's leading broadcasters, has successfully launched live news production using the Octopus Newsroom System. This marked a significant step forward in modernizing its newsroom operations and improving the speed and efficiency of news delivery.
What began as a single live broadcast has quickly evolved into a growing daily routine. NTV is steadily increasing its live news output, with plans to make real-time coverage a key part of its schedule. This shift is helping the channel react faster to current events and engage with audiences more directly.
NTV wanted to modernize its newsroom operations and introduce live news broadcasting capabilities. The objective was to create a streamlined newsroom environment that would improve productivity, enhance collaboration and enable faster news delivery.
To achieve this, Whiteways Systems designed and implemented a complete newsroom workflow solution based on the Octopus Newsroom System. The solution integrated newsroom computers, graphics, teleprompter and playout systems into a single workflow, allowing content to move from story creation to on-air transmission.
Whiteways was responsible for the supply, integration, testing, commissioning and training required to ensure successful deployment of the entire system.
The system designed and installed by Whiteways consists of:
The entire project was successfully executed by Whiteways Systems Pte. Ltd., Singapore, serving as the system integrator for the project.
The Whiteways team worked closely with NTV's newsroom staff, implemented the Octopus Newsroom system, integrated third-party solutions and ensured that everything was fully operational for live news broadcasts.
With Octopus now part of the core newsroom setup, NTV is well-positioned for a faster and more flexible news production workflow.
Working in Mongolia’s often harsh and snowy conditions, NTV’s newsroom stands out for its speed and adaptability. The challenging terrain only highlights how far the team has come in building a modern and connected newsroom.
"This is a big milestone for us. Going live has opened up new ways to deliver news faster and stay ahead. Our team is excited about what’s next."
"NTV has been a special project for us. The staff has really taken to the new system in a big way. They are using the system to produce great news bulletins. I am sure that NTV is the leading news channel in Mongolia."
