The unnecessary duplication of existing assets is a costly problem faced by most publishers today. By providing search insight into granular assets, capturing application files in addition to finished goods, and applying detailed rights and permissions metadata to all managed content, our publishing solutions help drive higher levels of re-use and re-purposing.
When publishers are able to more readily re-use the assets that they already own, product development moves dramatically faster, allowing new products to reach target markets more quickly than ever.
Ensuring that re-use is authorized by the rights holder is a major cost center for publishers. The reasons for this are many – lost time spent researching administrative files for contracts or correspondence, additional cost and delay associated with the commissioning of new assets for material whose rights cannot be verified, etc. By capturing and enforcing acquired rights, our systems help dramatically reduce this burden on publishing teams.
Rights clearance isn’t just an ethical issue – it’s also a legal one. By providing solutions that model and enforce acquired rights for all managed content, our solutions help publishers to decrease their potential exposure to copyright liability.
Knowing the rights clearance status of an asset not only aids in re-use across products, but also in repurposing of existing products for new markets. Flatirons has successfully designed and implemented solutions that inform and streamline the repurposing process, allowing publishers to more aggressively serve emerging market needs.
