The Challenge:

Managing promotional content efficiently and ensuring compliance across global teams posed significant challenges for Tata Consumer Products. Key obstacles included:

  • Decentralised Content Storage: Promotional materials were scattered across different departments, systems and folders, leading to inefficiencies in reuse and repurposing of content.
  • Knowledge Retention Issues: Content and context often got lost during staff transitions, affecting continuity and collaboration. There was no streamlined system to ensure a smooth transition of ownership.
  • Version Control Risks: Lack of robust version tracking resulted in compliance risks, low levels of transparency and outdated materials being used inadvertently.
  • Inefficient Digital Asset Management (DAM): Without centralised DAM, locating approved and compliant content for reuse was time-intensive and inconsistent.

The Opportunity:

Recognising the need for a unified system, Tata Consumer Products sought a solution that could integrate and streamline their digital content processes, including:

  • Lifecycle and version control of marketing assets.
  • Comprehensive Digital Asset Management for seamless collaboration and reuse.
  • Enhanced compliance workflows for marketing, legal, and regulatory (MLR) teams.
