Gavin Mann talks about how Accenture is handing all the digital supply chain contract for Universal Music Group. The agreement is designed to help Universal Music further adapt its business processes and systems to continue to stay ahead of the explosive demand for digital content and services, giving the music company an more consolidated, efficient and flexible technology platform to continue growing its digital services revenues.
Accenture will provide a managed digital supply service that Universal Music will operate in all geographies outside of North America. Digiplug SAS, which Accenture acquired last year and integrated into its Digital Media Services business, will collate and store Universal Music Group’s audio and video content, artwork and metadata to distribute to the music company’s mobile and digital business partners.
Accenture’s services should further enable Universal Music to launch new digital products more quickly, react to changes in the marketplace faster, provide clients with a higher level of service, and reduce the unit cost to create, manage and distribute music and video releases.
