WGBH, a PBS station, transitioned from a tape-based to a file-based workflow to make their production process more efficient. They centralized ingest and transcoding services and allowed content to remain as files throughout the entire process from acquisition to distribution. Key aspects of planning included defining the workflow and deliverables, establishing user access permissions, and mapping out the storage structure. The new file-based workflow allowed content to be ingested once and distributed to multiple platforms.
