The ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup in the UK was a large-scale international sporting tournament, spanning six weeks, 48 matches across 11 venues, and hosting over 1.5 million spectators and staff. Ensuring the safety of all players, support staff, spectators, transport and hotel personnel while delivering seamless operations was a complex challenge. Halo Solutions was chosen to provide a unified safety and intelligence platform that spans venues, agencies and operations.

To manage safety and security at this scale, organisers faced several challenges:

• Coordinating between multiple agencies: stadium security, transport teams, residential security, and police across many sites

• Ensuring real‐time visibility of incidents across venues, hotels, and transport operations to protect both reputation and people

• Handling a large volume of data—incidents, ticket scanning, persons of interest, live alerts—and making sure it can be analysed, reported, and acted upon

• Maintaining security and safety without creating an intrusive presence—keeping operations discreet while still effective

Halo provided a comprehensive intelligence and operations platform that addressed these challenges head‐on:

• A multi‐agency logging system so that all relevant stakeholders (stadium security, hotels, transport, police) could log data into the same system.

• Individual stakeholder dashboards, plus a master dashboard for organisers, giving both local and holistic views of all activity.

• Tools for ticket scanning, persons of interest tracking, seamless integration across operations, fan zones, travel, and accommodation.

• Robust data extraction and filtering features, enabling post-event analysis, trend spotting and filtering of large data sets.
