Jane's Information Group, online information provider and publisher of reference and analysis titles such as Jane's Defence Weekly, Jane's Fighting Ships and Jane's All the World's Aircraft, is set to streamline and improve its management of over 100,000 digital assets, including images and PDFs, with a digital asset management (DAM) solution from Picdar.

Working as an integral part of the publishing process, the DAM solution, Media Mogul®, will empower a dynamic and progressive workflow to update the publication process for titles including Jane's World Air Forces. This title is a vital resource providing a detailed list of the aircraft available to each of the world s air arms. Essentially, Media Mogul® enables Jane's to increase its publication efficiency and save hours each day finding and reusing critical assets and information.

Recognised as the authoritative source for defence, aerospace and transportation information, Jane's chose to work with Picdar after seeing the strength of its existing user base and the success of the solutions provided for other publishing clients. It was also considered more scaleable and better supported.

Media Mogul®, will be rolled-out in two stages, and will replace a legacy asset management system. Refining the whole publication process it will centralise the different publishing methods, integrating the content management processes and legacy databases at Jane's.
