Save
Time & Money:
Rapidly
generate and distribute detailed Shot List specifications.
Bureaux and customers no longer need to endlessly sift though
reams of Spreadsheets to develop pre-productions, log studio
sessions, and manage data assets. PECS Tools Suite is an easy
to use set of applications that encompasses all aspects of
Data Production Pipeline.
Increasing
productivity for both the customers and the bureaux by removing
many of the organisational tasks that waste valuable time
and money, and allowing people to concentrate on
the job of creating great Data. PECS Manager constantly monitors
the progress of multiple projects allowing bureaux to flexibly
alter production workflow to maximise capacity.

Multiple Customers Simultaneously:
Customers using Shot (List) Generator Wizard can send their specifications
directly to service bureaux running PECS Manager.
A bureau can rapidly assess project requirements
before quoting and/or accepting the job. Once accepted, the |
project
automatically enters the bureau's pipeline including all requirements
(e.g. shot list, performers, props, stunt equipment, data
formats, delivery methods).
Maximise Technology Investment:
On-set studio time needs to be used at full capacity
to maximise investment. Bureaux running PECS Manager can instantly
switch from one project to another and change shooting priorities
to accommodate flexible schedules and short notice customers.
|
Increase Productivity:
Use team members to their full potential.
Assign tasks to post production staff and monitor their workflow
for quality and performance. Use Data Analysis tools to asses
the quality and post-production complexities of every shot,
and Assignment tools to allocate them to the appropriate staff.

Available in
stand-alone and network modes, PECS Tools Suite can co-ordinate
remote teams in different locations around the world. For
example, a bureau may have its facility in one country, two post-production
teams in others, and the customer in a fourth.
Reduce Errors & Improve Customer Relations:
Built in Quality
Control and Delivery tools enable bureaux running PECS Manager to
guarantee an unprecedented level of quality assurance
to their customers. Using Shot Generator Wizard and PECS Manager
together customers and bureaux can be confident that all shots are
completed accurately and delivered according to specification.
