If you feel like economic and business pressures are converging and your team is struggling to adapt, you aren’t alone. As layoffs, restructurings, and mergers have become regular occurrences, operational teams are expected to deliver more titles and assets to an increasing number of destinations. Reliant on leaner teams and fewer resources, they must do more with less — all while maintaining the responsiveness and accuracy to fulfill unanticipated business deals quickly.
Whether it was subbing, dubbing, captioning, or compliance, I was impressed by some of the new tools for automating these important tasks. It was clear that GenAI and machine learning tools will help make more content available to more audiences faster. It’s an exciting time, and it’s also a time to start experimenting.
In our most recent blog post, we discuss how to take advantage of the innovations on display at IBC. Your Rally media supply chain platform helps you experiment with these tools — and integrate them without worrying about typical procurement and technical integration challenges.
In the blog, we look at the factors that help companies meet the dual challenge of managing growing workloads and addressing unexpected surges in demand.
Creating an efficient media supply chain is not a one-time project; it should be in a continuous state of evolution as our businesses and technology evolve.
Consistently shrinking deadlines, an expanding number of distribution destinations, and rapid changes in the makeup of operating teams mean today’s workflows will not be ideally suited to tomorrow’s requirements. Incorporating agile design principles and incremental improvements into your workflows is more important than ever.
Over time, media companies can improve workflows systematically, optimize content quality, and ensure rapid scalability to meet new demands by adopting an iterative approach that integrates distinct functional steps and leverages new advancements in media processing.
In the blog, we discuss how an agile approach, supported by Rally, to media supply chain iteration and evolution allows you to adopt new technologies and increase their use over time. Rally users are uniquely equipped to respond to change, helping teams maintain cutting-edge operations.

More Duplication Options Speed New Setup in Rally
Rally Gateway and Insight widgets can now be duplicated on pages and dashboards. As a result, administrators can build dashboards more efficiently: simply start with settings from a different widget on the same page, then adjust as needed.
Rally administrators can also duplicate complete Gateways, dashboards, and Access portals. Since duplicating allows administrators to start from an established point, they can set up users and groups more quickly.
These are just some of many recent updates made to the Rally platform. Read more in our latest Rally Updates blog.
