RyanSummary
Media Supply Chain is the end-to-end process of producing, managing, distributing, and monetizing media content. Media supply chains typically begin with title acquisition or origination and end with distribution and delivery. Salesforce often tracks acquisition targets, pre-greenlight content, and distribution deals; Rightsline tracks acquired and sold rights, " rights in" and " rights out"; and Fabric manages title metadata.
Integrating these critical systems and automating the sales and deal workflows they support significantly increases supply chain efficiency. These automated workflows ensure that sales teams have real-time information about titles and rights, enabling them to maximize revenue.
Achieving this automation is a complex task involving media domain-specific and software development knowledge. Typical integration projects require domain experts, developers, and project managers to communicate well to achieve the desired outcome. These projects often run for three to nine months and incur costs greater than $100k.
