Broadcast Playout, Automation and Graphics Systems

The buyer requires an integrated broadcast playout, automation, and graphics system. The requested scope includes robust operational monitoring, metrics, and alerts, alongside open APIs for future web platform integrations. Systems must handle graphics and animations designed in HTML5 and LOTTIE formats, featuring logo placement, snipes, lower thirds, and full-screen billboards with dynamic playlist text. Graphics must remain outside black spaces to prevent cropping during Active Format Descriptor (AFD) downstream conversions. Additional technical requirements encompass alternate graphics based on video aspect ratios, file-resolution and database-driven AFD insertion, audio channel remapping, and numeric encoding integration. Only Canadian organizations qualify for this opportunity, and work may occur onsite or offsite. The buyer seeks proposals to establish the budget. Interested bidders must submit all questions by October 20, 2026.
