Creative Workflow


Assessing Your Current Workflows

So, why not take a snapshot of where you are today within your job function or department to evaluate your current situation and plan for the growth or evolution of that function?

Technology that supports your digital workflows includes desktop hardware and software, network infrastructure, repositories for your assets (such as servers and drives), output devices, and your staff's technical skill set.

When planning strategically, one of the first steps is to inventory what you already possess. That includes your physical technology, your assets, and your staff's skill sets. Take a look at the following list to inventory your technologies, methodologies, and skills:

  • Review tools, including hardware and software

  • Repositories and librarian utilities

  • Methods for repurposing and distributing content

  • Methods for reviewing and approving your content

  • Methods for tracking and managing jobs

  • Experience and skill levels for all methods of creation/production for distribution

Let's take each workflow individually and examine the technology required and the options that exist in the present market for each. Let's start with the creative workflow.
