CBS TELEVISION CITY
The Los Angeles facility has been the home of some of television’s most legendary productions.
It recently upgraded the facility’s administrative procedures to delivering an equally award-winning performance. To increase efficiency, reduce costs, and enhance customer service, the facility replaced legacy administrative systems with Xytech
Enterprise software running on the Microsoft™ Windows Server™ 2003 operating system and Microsoft SQL Server™ 2000 relational database.
The solution has increased efficiency in the scheduling department, allowing resources to be more profitably deployed. Studio managers and customers can see how resources are being used at any time during a production, enabling them to manage production budgets in real time. Invoices are more accurate and comprehensive, enabling customers to pay those invoices faster.
