Single supplier - technical reasons
Stadium has already implemented solution within the venue – to change this product, it will cost approximately 300-400k with regards to Turnstile readers, PDAs, servers etc.
A major Business partner at the venue has an integration with Fortress as they sell tickets, which would cause major disruptions and additional cost to both parties.
