Automated Televising Services

BroadcastManager services provide convenient  and low cost video coverage of government meetings—with zero effort by government staff.

Cost is significantly reduced because technology and specialized staff are provided remotely by GovTV.  Government can reduce all costs related to video coverage of government meetings because a local video control room and dedicated staff to operate the equipment are not needed.   BroadcastManager video coverage  is fully compatible with all Granicus solutions.

Cloud-Based Video Production

GovTV BroadcastManager services use video control rooms within the GovTV Operations Center to produce video coverage for many governments.   This is a centralized approach that supports government “sharing” the hardware and technical staff that GovTV provides remotely via the Internet Cloud. This shared approach reduces individual government cost for video coverage and leverages economies of scale.   Cost is reduced by the powerful, yet simple concept of “multi-client sharing” which GovTV BroadcastManager services uniquely provides.

BroadcastManager services do not require government to build, maintain, or operate government-managed control rooms.  GovTV provides each government the service of a cloud-based control room and experienced GovTV staff.  Zero government staff effort is required.  Cost is significantly reduced for governments that require video coverage for only 2-4 meetings each month.

GovTV BroadcastMananger services are less costly when compared to internally managed video coverage of government meetings. 

For many years, government has been burdened with the responsibility and expense of producing video coverage of government meetings.  The upfront capital expense required to build a government video control room is often above $200,000 and sometimes exceeds $400,000. These figures often do not include the cost of cameras or the on-going expense of government staff to manage and operate these systems. The bottom line is that producing video coverage of government meetings has historically been expensive
to government.

Compared to the cost of internally managed video coverage, BroadcastManager solutions provide an excellent return on investment and require zero government staff effort.  Government benefits include convenience, reduced cost, and “peace of mind” that comes with a fully managed service— leaving government free to do what it
does best - govern.
