StorerTV Helps Ovation TV Streamline Program Scheduling and Amortization

The Ovation TV network has gone “live” on the Storer Information Management System (SIMS) to air world-class music, dance and visual art performances over multiple channels. With roughly 40 million subscribers, Ovation TV selected SIMS as the best possible choice for a reliable and industry tested system that could handle the scheduling of original and acquired programming, as well as manage the amortization and financial reporting of their contractual commitments.

“SIMS simplifies the entire program management process,” says Jay Batista, Chief Operating Officer of StorerTV. “In one unified system, users can easily manage program contracts, schedules, titles, media libraries and finances – allowing for the consolidation of data that greatly reduces repetitive tasks and errors.”

Enhanced features in SIMS, like the drag and drop scheduling function and advanced reporting tools, give Ovation TV the ease of scheduling program titles, media and formats with a single action, and then quickly report on how many plays remain. SIMS also seamlessly integrates with their Orion traffic system, making it possible for programmers to schedule content once, and have it automatically update the traffic schedule.
