Pikolo ITracker discrepancy reporter and Vela integrate to standardize on air documentation and distribute operational data thereby increasing staff engagement.

DALLAS, TEXAS, US, March 30, 2020 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Pikolo Data Systems, the leading provider of broadcast operations management workflows, today announced a technology partnership with Vela Research, a leading provider of compliance monitoring, logging, and multi-viewer systems. The new partnership integrates Pikolo’s ITracker ™ broadcast operations management workflow with Vela’s Encompass software.

Pikolo ITracker is the #1 rated broadcast incident tracking and discrepancy reporting solution, helping organizations standardize, document, and distribute operational data increasing staff engagement. ITracker’s dashboards help managers visualize trends resulting in business process improvements.

Vela’s Encompass, Luna and Luna+ are the #1 Volicon-replacement solutions enabling broadcast television stations and other media companies to fully meet their regulatory and advertiser compliance requirements, and enhance their news, advertising sales and management workflows.

This new integration creates bi-directional communication between ITracker and Encompass that benefits users, enabling engineering, operations, newsroom, ad sales, OTT and management staff to more precisely and effectively link and view compliance, ads, alerts and other related exceptions and events to the underlying linear programming. Traffic, supervisors and any authorized user can playback low-res proxies while viewing incidents.

Additionally, Encompass alerts are automatically entered into ITracker thereby increasing accuracy and efficiency.

Vernon Omegah, Pikolo VP of Technology stated, “Pikolo is committed to providing leading edge solutions to meet our clients’ needs. The workflow benefits garnered from this integration will lead to improved operational efficiency, increased information availability and human resource cost savings.”
