MSP evaluates and documents current and desired production workflows, distribution and archiving processes, technologies, content characteristics, and associated metadata schema and rights management methodologies.

Emphasis is placed on workflow efficiencies, content value and lifecycles, preservation needs, and business objectives, constraints and opportunities.

Our workflow specialists examine all metadata and media movements in search of ways to make them work more efficiently, meaning more production for less cost. The first stage in the process is high level workflow design: describing how things will work, with an emphasis on identifying what, when, where, why and how information is exchanged between business units, workgroups, and systems (equipment). We record the high level design in graphical and textual documents targeted both for engineering staff as well as operations.

MSP manages the project from requirements gathering through deployment, specializing in multi-vendor implementations.

Design Process
	Document user group goals, functions and requirements.
	Capture and describe asset creation, workflows and usage.
	Capture and describe the existing and planned technology infrastructure.
	Naming conventions, data migration, GUI design, end-to-end process design.
	Integration specifications between software components, process logic.
