CGI has integrated its OpenMedia end-to-end newsroom solution suite with Microsoft Teams to deliver a modern unified communications platform for today’s journalists and producers.
With this enhanced platform, newsrooms can address workflow challenges resulting from an increase in broadcasting channels, as well as remote newsgathering and production.
In line with increasing digital transformation priorities over the past few years, a growing number of broadcasters worldwide are adopting central communications platforms to help production teams collaborate while working across multiple channels and from remote locations. These platforms can help address common data sharing and collaboration workflow issues. For example, essential data may not be entered from a remote site into core newsroom systems, and, as a result, the data is not accessible to a majority of users. A unified communication platform overcomes challenges like this, enabling more effective data sharing and collaboration.
As a Microsoft Gold Partner, CGI integrated Microsoft Teams’ workspace chat and video conference features with its OpenMedia solution to streamline communication channels for journalists and producers in the newsroom.
CGI’s OpenMedia solution is part of a comprehensive set of newsroom and radio solutions that CGI delivers to broadcasters worldwide to enhance production workflows and management across various media channels, including TV, radio, online and social channels.
