Media Asset Management Consultation & Assessment

You’ll Get (Outcomes)

When you engage BMG for MAM consultation, you receive a comprehensive blueprint that transforms media chaos into operational clarity:

Requirements and workflow map – Clear documentation of current asset flows, pain points, and future-state workflows that align with your production and distribution needs.
Architecture and roadmap options – Phased implementation paths with technology recommendations, integration requirements, and scalability considerations for long-term growth.
Budgetary estimate and timeline – Transparent cost breakdown covering software licensing, storage infrastructure, integration services, and realistic deployment schedules that works within client fiscal guidelines.
Handover and next steps – Documented transition plan with training requirements, operational runbooks, and clear success criteria for going live.

What’s Included

BMG’s broadcast engineers design MAM programs that eliminate manual file handling and asset duplication:

Workflow design and space planning – Map content flows from acquisition through archive, identifying automation opportunities and removing bottlenecks.
System design and future scalability – Architecture engineered to handle current volumes while accommodating 3-5 year growth projections without rip-and-replace.
Ingest and automation of media workflows – Automated file normalization, metadata tagging, and routing rules that reduce manual handling and human error.
Storage, retrieval, distribution across platforms – Tiered storage strategy balancing performance and cost; fast retrieval for active projects, deep archive for compliance and reuse.
Advanced routing and access engineering – Role-based permissions, secure external access for remote editors, and audit trails for compliance and governance.
Integration touchpoints: master control, studios, edit bays – Seamless connectivity between MAM, playout automation, NLE systems, and production environments—eliminating manual file transfers.
Staff training and handover – Hands-on operator training, administrator orientation, and complete system documentation for confident day-one operations.
Dark fiber planning/installation – High-bandwidth connectivity design and deployment for facilities requiring dedicated fiber links between sites or to cloud infrastructure.

How It Works

Assess

Our broadcast engineers audit your current asset workflows, storage infrastructure, and metadata practices. We identify inefficiencies, security gaps, and scalability constraints—then define success criteria aligned with your operational and business goals.

Plan

We design a comprehensive MAM architecture with detailed integration specifications, automation rules, and migration strategies. Our team creates phased roadmaps and budgets informed by real-world deployments—ensuring technical decisions support long-term operational needs rather than just immediate problems.

Pilot/Rollout

BMG manages implementation end-to-end. We deploy systems, configure integrations, migrate legacy archives, and train your team—then monitor performance and optimize workflows. You focus on content strategy; we handle the technical complexity of making assets findable, reusable, and secure.

FAQs

Do you integrate with existing studios and edit bays?

Yes, studio/control room design and edit/post installation are in scope.

Do you cover routing, access, and master control?

Yes, advanced routing/access and master control design are included.

Do you provide training and network planning?

Yes, staff training and dark fiber installation planning are part of the engagement. We also staff the network operations. We provide end-to-end, turnkey services for clients.

Can the MAM scale as our content volumes grow?

Yes. We design tiered storage architectures and cloud-hybrid models that scale cost-effectively—balancing high-performance storage for active projects with economical deep archive for long-term retention and compliance.

Do you provide ongoing support after implementation?

Yes. Systems can be connected to our 24/7 Cloud NOC for continuous monitoring, incident response, and optimization—ensuring MAM performance and availability match production demands.
