jStart Technical Sales Specialist: Fred FernandezSmarter Media Ecosystems of any size
The Emergence of M&E Ecosystems
The Media & Entertainment industry is experiencing major transformations that are dramatically changing how content is created and distributed. In response to these changes, the industry has begun to operate as ecosystems of suppliers and vendors who provide specialized capabilities on a project-oriented basis. Dynamic project relationships between ecosystem and subsystem entities cause production optimization to become increasingly difficult. Visibility, connectivity and interoperability are central to optimizing these emerging media environments.
The M&E Ecosystem Environment
- Participants need on-demand access to multiple sources of information, assets and status updates
- Workflow resources and processes are both intra- and extra- organizational
- Project oriented operating models result in IT systems that are individually deployed in support of each project
- Temporary collections of resources need to be quickly set up and taken apart for efficient re-allocation
- Residual assets and systems from each project need to be re-usable
- Project costs need to be actively controlled based upon changing project revenue forecasts
