An IT company from Kazan is the official supplier of the spectator access control and management system at the World Cup 2022 stadium in Qatar

Infomatica is the only Russian company that provides the e-access control system for spectators (LENTA SEACS), taking part in the preparation and holding of the 22nd FIFA World Cup 2022. The project of equipping the stadium «Ahmad bin Ali» was implemented in record time. In four months more than 120 units of access control equipment were produced and delivered to the Customer. Despite the lack of physical presence at the site, because of the coronavirus restrictions in 2020, the company was able to provide technical support for the system remotely, transferring the final installation to local partners with whom it signed a separate contract. The company’s engineers provided technical support to LENTA SEACS at all events held at the stadium since its opening in 2020, including the FIFA Arab Cup 2021 and the FIFA Club World Cup. Since October 2022, the company’s specialists have been in Qatar and provided technical support for the system of access control of spectators to «Ahmad bin Ali» in preparation for the 22nd FIFA World Cup.

The LENTA SEACS hardware includes 94 Horizon smart turnstiles, 30 Navigare automated smart gates and the Contour Classic premium turnstile installed on the stadium’s inner perimeter. Manual mobile scanners are used to check VVIP visitors' tickets. LENTA SEACS is successfully integrated with the FIFA ticket system. The system meets all the requirements of the International Football Federation and is adapted to the natural features of Qatar - heat, sand dust and high humidity. These are the only Russian turnstiles with protection class IP65.
