Overview
The nature of the broadcast industry is wrapped around change. One of these types of change occurs when stations face major projects that can be disruptive, yet fulfilling for those involved. This significant change causes stress unless a carefully designed structure is wrapped around the work. This webinar explores the roles and responsibilities of those involved in planning and executing a capital project. Emphasis is placed on the responsibilities of the station, consultants, and system integrators.
Who Should Attend
This webinar assists managers, design engineers, chief engineers and staff members planning and executing upgraded or new facilities plan effectively, and manage without undue conflict.
