Live Event Consultation & Assessment
Strategic planning for major one-off or recurring live events, including venue selection, run-of-show development, creative services, technical design, REMI workflows, and multi-platform distribution.
View More“We know we need to do more or something different with video / live events/channels – but we’re not sure what the right workflow, staffing model, or infrastructure should be.”
Our consulting division exists to answer that before you commit to expensive production, technology, or headcount.
At the end of an engagement, you don’t just get a deck; you get a broadcast‑grade operations plan that you can trust in front of executives, investors, regulators, or millions of viewers.
Our recommendations are grounded in real-world operational experience, not theoretical blueprints. We’re power users of the hardware, software, and workflows we recommend—because we operate them every day across live productions, NOC environments, and 24/7 channel operations. BMG’s consulting team includes operators who’ve run networks, directed congressional hearings, produced rocket launches, and designed facilities serving thousands of users. Your plan reflects what actually holds up under scrutiny, scale, and pressure.
We understand live production, master control, NOC operations, MAM workflows, systems integration, and staffing. Your consulting deliverables won’t be biased toward a single vendor, technology, or operating model. You’ll see honest tradeoffs and practical paths forward.
We show you multiple paths with clear tradeoffs:
You make the final decision with complete visibility into costs, risks, timelines, and operational implications.
We can work with heavily regulated government agencies, publicly traded financial services firms, fast-moving media and tech companies, and global enterprises with distributed operations. Your roadmap reflects your specific risk tolerance, governance requirements, procurement constraints, and organizational culture rather than generic best practices.
Once your plan is defined, you can:
There’s no pressure to use BMG for implementation—but if you choose to, the transition is seamless because we designed the plan with operational reality in mind.

If you’re asking, “What should we build, buy, outsource, or keep in‑house?” – that’s where our broadcast consulting services start.
It depends on scope. Focused engagements (single event, DR assessment) typically run 2–4 weeks. Comprehensive assessments (MAM strategy, facility design, master control modernization) often run 6–12 weeks to allow for stakeholder interviews, technical discovery, and detailed design work.
No. Our consulting deliverables are designed to stand on their own. You can execute with your internal teams, your existing vendors, or engage BMG for specific phases. Many clients use consulting to validate plans before committing to larger implementation contracts—with us or others.
Most engagements are hybrid: initial discovery calls and final presentations are often remote, while facility assessments, stakeholder interviews, and technical audits may require on-site time depending on complexity and security requirements.
Start with a discovery call. We’ll help you identify which consulting path (or combination) makes sense based on your goals, current state, and constraints. Many engagements combine multiple areas—for example, MAM + Systems Integration for a new facility, or Live Event + DR for a high-stakes broadcast.
Yes. We often structure engagements in phases—starting with high-priority areas (e.g., immediate event needs, DR gaps) and expanding into longer-term architecture and operational design as resources and priorities evolve.
