TACTIC overview

What is TACTIC?

TACTIC is a smart collaboration-oriented software used for configuring and deploying enterprise workflow solutions.

TACTIC simplifies complex production environments through a well-defined set of processes.

By providing a core Workflow Engine with Digital Asset Management and Content Management components, it provides a complete solution for individualized enterprise needs.

The TACTIC project module enables supervisors to manage jobs across teams, allocate resources and build interactive workflows by adding automation, approvals, and conditional steps.

Using the media library, employees can upload and store assets in a centralized repository, organize them into collections and add tags for search purpose.

TACTIC allows users to collaborate, invite other team members on projects and share assets securely. It also comes with mobile applications for iOS and Android.

Trusted by many organizations, including Lockheed Martin, Turner Broadcasting, P&G, Adidas, Mayo Clinic, and Technicolor.

The TACTIC platform is available as open source (without a data model) or in commercial versions (with a data model) and an open and mature API.

Key features include visual workflow configuration, asset categorization, customizable branding, metadata management, access controls, version control, and document management.

The projects module lets users automatically create tasks as per the requirements of the job, display ongoing activities, and build workflows for specific jobs. The built-in media library stores files, allowing users to organize assets into collections and download files in batches that can be customized based on individual demands.

Organize, Find and Work

Organization of Assets. Clean up messy shared drives

- Upload files directly to the asset library using drag and drop interfaces

Organize into Collections

- can contain any number of assets and sub-collections

- assets can be part of different collections

- can have keywords and assets (sub-collections will inherit the keywords of the collections they belong to)

Versioning

- all files uploaded to assets are automatically versioned (nothing is ever lost)

Storage

- all digital assets in a centralized location

- infinitely scalable cloud storage

Find Assets. Find what you need -- and fast.

- search using keywords

- keywords automatically extracted based on context (i.e. where they came from, what the name of the file was and the folder it came from)

- user-defined keywords allow for targeted management of each asset

- keywords from data generated by the file can be added

- search using metadata

- compound searching

Previews

- assets can be viewed with simple previews automatically extracted from the file

- preview can be manually uploaded to the asset at any point

Work on Assets. Give your team more horsepower.

Jobs

- create and manage jobs to track work done on assets

-no more spreadsheets to track work done

- jobs can contain assets

- assets in a job are scoped within the job and are separate from the main asset library

- maintain a separation between finished assets in the asset library and work in progress assets located in jobs

- push finished assets in jobs back to the Asset Library (self-organize)

Workflow

- use workflows to enforce proper steps are taken when working on assets

- Approvals, Automation, Schedule generation

- interactively create workflows using a visual editor

- track what parts of the job have been worked, and who worked on them

Job types

- jobs can be categorized into different job types to reflect the type of job

- jobs can have a custom request form for the creation of that job type

- associate workflows automatically to jobs

- specify a list of collections to be created for each job

Kanban/Scheduling

- manage tasks using Kanban cards

- schedule assets using Gantt charts

- assign tasks

Key benefits of using TACTIC

At Southpaw, we understand that consistent data management within large-scale, cross-border organizations is an ongoing challenge.

Bottlenecks arise from collaboration, the large stream of data involved, and endless searching for all this information. How these issues are managed typically includes some combination of shared folders, SharePoint instances and trails of mail attachments; an ad hoc system that over time, ends up in some degree of chaos. This can be avoided with a smart data management system; smart enough that it should become self-organizing.

Our software, TACTIC, enhances operations by removing bottlenecks and chaos by taking a 'client' and/or 'case' business process approach from the beginning to end.

By working through workflows and the assigned tasks, TACTIC automatically knows where to put the assets, data and all the information generated. In fact, TACTIC knows exactly what every job and process a file is for, what reason a file exists, and even who uploaded it. This is the context needed for a smart data management system to become self-organizing.

Global TACTIC users include (or have included) Adidas, Technicolor, Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics, and P&G.

The TACTIC platform is available as open source (without a data model) or in commercial versions (with a data model).

The TACTIC API is built for developers to create interfaces using easily and quickly using React, Vue or Angular for example.

Workflow Engine - no need to write your own process engine.

DAM - connect to a server-based DAM capable of handling any size project.

Use your favorite Apps - connect to Python, JavaScript, and others.
