We like to think of the Atos team as our silent partner. We do not see them but we know that they are in the background performing an absolutely essential role. Their delivery of key IT systems for the Paralympic Games allows us to engage with a worldwide audience and deliver a message of inclusion.

 

Andrew Parsons
International Paralympic Committee (IPC) President

On the road to Paris 2024

As the lead technology integrator, Atos coordinates a team of 15 technology partners comprising over 2,000 experts, all working to make the Olympic and Paralympic Games Paris 2024 fully connected, secure and digitally enabled.

Application modernization and DevSecOps

Atos has implemented DevSecOps practices that enhance security while preserving agility and scalability. We have deployed nearly 600 containerized microservices that have transformed app development for the Olympic and Paralympic Games, speeding up the process by 3.

Delivering key applications for the IOC and IPC

Atos is delivering more than 150 key applications, including the Olympic Management System (OMS) and Olympic Diffusion System (ODS). These applications ensure centralized information and interaction between the various stakeholders, such as athletes, coaches, commentators, fans and organizing partners.

Ensuring technology readiness

Atos will conduct over 250 000 hours of rigorous testing before the competition begins. This initiative is performed using real data and scenarios from previous Olympic and Paralympic Games, guaranteeing that all critical applications run smoothly during the competition.

Real-time data transmission for fans and media

Atos distributes real-time data to officials and international media, keeping everyone — whether inside an event venue or watching at home across the globe — up to date with the latest Olympic and Paralympic Games results. Atos’s Commentator Information System (CIS) transmits results and sports information nearly instantaneously to broadcasters and media.

Reducing environmental impact on IT around the Olympic and Paralympic Games

By reducing physical servers and adopting more efficient development practices, we have played a significant part in delivering a greener Olympic and Paralympic Games, contributing to a climate-positive future.

 

Paris 2024 will benefit from Atos’s unique expertise, propelling
technological innovation in the Olympic movement for more than three decades.
