The challenge

Corporate meeting

Complex Media Collaboration Requirements with Legacy Systems

The constraint: 10TB+ daily media volume, real-time newsroom demands, legacy broadcast system integration, editorial workflow governance

The broadcaster faced challenges managing massive media files and complex editorial workflows across distributed teams. Newsroom operations required instant collaboration, real-time updates, and strict content approval processes that most standard collaboration platforms simply weren’t built for. Daily media volume exceeded 10TB, pushing well past the limits typical cloud storage and collaboration tools were designed to handle, while the fast-paced newsroom environment demanded instant collaboration and real-time updates that couldn’t tolerate the lag of legacy systems.

Complex integration with legacy broadcast asset management systems added technical friction to every workflow that touched existing infrastructure, and compliance with archival content access and media retention policies had to be maintained throughout any modernization. Across distributed teams, editorial leadership also needed transparent oversight of workflow status — visibility that legacy, siloed systems couldn’t provide. The organization needed a platform that could unify massive-scale media collaboration, integrate with legacy broadcast systems, and support editorial governance simultaneously rather than address them one at a time.

Our approach

Comprehensive M365 Platform for Creative Teams

Teceze designed a tailored Microsoft 365 environment optimized for media operations, combining enhanced collaboration tools with media-specific capabilities. Microsoft Teams was configured with enhanced file limits, media-specific channels, and real-time collaboration features, enabling seamless creative team interactions across studios and regional offices without the file-size ceilings that standard Teams deployments impose.

From challenge to transformation, the solution included:

Teams with Enhanced Media Capabilities

Microsoft Teams configured with enhanced file limits, media-specific channels, and real-time collaboration features enabling seamless creative team interactions across studios and regional offices.

SharePoint with CDN Integration

SharePoint with Content Delivery Network integration for optimal media asset delivery, caching, and performance optimization ensuring fast access to large media libraries.

Stream and Video Management

Stream for secure internal video storage, distribution, and management, with broadcast-grade quality and archival capabilities for long-term content preservation.

Workflow Automation and Governance

Power Automate workflows for automated editorial approval, content publishing, and compliance enforcement, reducing manual processes and ensuring consistent workflow adherence.

Governance and Reporting Cadence

Operational transparency and stakeholder alignment are critical to program success. A layered governance model keeps program health and costs visible:

Weekly Editorial Leadership Review Workflow efficiency, content throughput, editorial approval metrics
Monthly Business Review User adoption, storage utilization, cost optimization, performance trends
