NEP Group, the leading media services provider for live sports and entertainment worldwide, today announced the availability of Riedel's SimplyLive Production Suite through NEP Platform, further expanding the platform's ecosystem of trusted technologies. With this latest integration, customers now have access to one of the industry's leading live production software solutions, giving them greater flexibility to build modern production workflows using software they know and trust, while leveraging NEP Platform to deploy, orchestrate and manage these applications through a single, secure interface.

Riedel's SimplyLive Production Suite offers key capabilities including live production, replay, ingest recording, streaming and video review in a flexible, modular suite. Through NEP Platform, customers can now seamlessly integrate SimplyLive into broader production workflows, alongside complementary software applications from other trusted suppliers.  

Offering the industry's largest ecosystem of trusted software applications for media production, NEP Platform gives customers greater choice and control over how they build smarter and leaner production workflows.

Rather than replacing software that NEP’s customers already know and trust, NEP Platform provides the orchestration layer to bring applications together into a unified software-defined environment. Through a single, secure interface, organizations can rapidly deploy, orchestrate and scale applications up or down as production requirements evolve.

Dan Murphy, Vice President of NEP Platform, said:

"Organizations don't want to replace the workflows and expertise they've already invested in, or be locked into a single solution—they want the freedom to choose the right software for every production.

“That's exactly what NEP Platform enables. We provide the orchestration layer that allows customers to deploy, connect and manage trusted software applications through a unified operational framework. The addition of SimplyLive further expands customer choice while continuing to grow the industry's largest software ecosystem for media production."

Ulrich Voigt, Director, Live Production Solutions, Riedel Communications, said:

"SimplyLive is built to give production teams maximum flexibility—whether on a truck, in a studio, remotely, or in the cloud. With integrated live production, replay, ingest recording, streaming, and video review combined in a single, modular suite, customers can deploy exactly the components their workflows demand. Making SimplyLive available through NEP Platform takes that flexibility even further: customers can now embed SimplyLive seamlessly into broader, software-defined production environments—while retaining the operational freedom that modern production teams expect."

Every NEP Platform deployment is backed by the expertise of the teams delivering many of the world's largest and most complex live productions every day, ensuring customers benefit not only from powerful software orchestration, but also from decades of real-world production experience.

Building on NEP's long history of customer-driven innovation, NEP Platform further strengthens the company's ability to deliver flexible, scalable solutions across its global media services portfolio. From content capture to distribution, NEP combines software orchestration with industry-leading mobile units, specialty capture solutions, rental equipment, studios, production hubs, connectivity, and full creative and production services—delivering integrated solutions tailored to the unique requirements of every production.
