Australia’s Leading Pay TV Provider Expands Pilat
Media Installation with IBMS Rights
LONDON — May 24, 2012— Pilat Media Global plc (AIM: PGB), a leading supplier of
business management software to the media industry, today announced that Australian
pay television provider FOXTEL is expanding its deployment of Pilat Media’s Integrated
Broadcast Management System (IBMS) with the addition of IBMS Rights. IBMS Rights
will provide FOXTEL with a centralized tool for managing the rights for each piece of
content to be delivered to multiple platforms and devices.
Available either as a standalone solution or as an addition to IBMS-managed
environments, IBMS Rights delivers centralized rights management for all types of
broadcasting operations and platforms. With IBMS Rights, media operations can manage
contracts and licensed rights for all content to be distributed through their own services or
through sub-licensing. Acquisitions and finance personnel can log on and centrally
manage consumption and distribution rights for all acquired or self-produced content, and
they can record and process any rights conditions or obligations using IBMS Rights’
flexible and extensible business rules engine.
“We launched IBMS Rights in 2010 with customers like FOXTEL in mind — successful
media enterprises that are looking to maximize revenues in this multiplatform world,
while at the same time ensure compliance with multiple and highly varied contractual
obligations,” said Avi Engel, CEO of Pilat Media. “We look forward to working with
FOXTEL as it expands its IBMS footprint for greater control over all aspects of its media
business operation.”
