Northampton, MA – Myers, a leading developer of broadcast management software, announces the return of Alabama Public Television (APT) to their broadcast management system, ProTrack. ProTrack will serve as APT’s primary content metadata database and distribution manager. By centralizing content metadata at the business level and providing a series of integration points to technical systems up and down the broadcast chain, ProTrack will drive APT’s multi-channel workflows from the point of acquisition to playout and everything in between.

The NRB Network launched in 2005 with an internally developed traffic solution that was found to be inadequate for their scheduling, sales, and traffic needs. They were unable to support key integrations that would facilitate cross-departmental workflows and media management tasks across disparate systems. They needed a system that did more than just “traffic and billing.” ProTrack was the solution.

The AIB Network was managing core responsibilities independently across their broadcast operations, making workflow efficiency a challenge. With each department acting as an individual silo, they needed a solution that could provide an automated and centralized work flow, in order to monetize their program schedules. ProTrack was able to integrate seamlessly with their existing automation system and provide proof of performance invoices for their advertising partners — all within a tight timeframe.
