In the heart of Western Australia, the City of Stirling stands as a beacon of community and innovation. As the local government responsible for managing a vibrant array of promotional activities, including campaigns and events, the City of Stirling faced the monumental task of handling countless digital assets. These assets, crucial for marketing and communication, were scattered across various locations, leading to inefficiencies and collaboration hurdles. Recognising the need for change, the City of Stirling turned to HIVO, the leading digital asset management software provider, for a solution that would revolutionise their digital asset management and streamline their operations.
The Challenge: Dispersed Assets and Inefficient Processes
Before partnering with HIVO, the City of Stirling's digital assets were dispersed across multiple storage solutions, including local drives and folder structures. This fragmentation made sharing assets among staff, partners, and departments a daunting task. The lack of a centralized repository meant that the process of tagging, searching, and tracking the usage of images and videos was inefficient and time-consuming. Additionally, receiving digital media from third parties via USB drives or cloud sharing further exacerbated the issue, leading to an unsustainable increase in the locations of file storage.
The Solution: HIVO's Centralized Digital Asset Management
HIVO stepped in to provide a cutting-edge solution tailored to the City of Stirling's unique needs. Our digital asset management software offered a centralized platform that transformed how the City managed its digital assets. Initially adopted by the Communications and Economic and Marketing teams, the platform's success led to its expansion across the entire organization. This centralization has enabled seamless sharing and management of digital files, ensuring that every team member can access the assets they need, when they need them.
The Impact: Streamlined Operations and Enhanced Collaboration
The implementation of HIVO's digital asset management software has had a profound impact on the City of Stirling's operations. The central repository has eliminated the previous challenges associated with asset dispersion and inefficient processes. Now, staff can effortlessly tag, search, and utilize digital assets, significantly reducing the time and effort required to manage these resources. This efficiency boost has not only streamlined internal operations but also enhanced collaboration with partners and across departments.
Moreover, the ability to effectively manage digital assets has empowered the City of Stirling to elevate its promotional activities. With easy access to a rich library of digital assets, the City can now craft more engaging and impactful marketing and communication campaigns. This has led to improved community engagement and has positioned the City of Stirling as a leader in innovative and efficient local government operations.
