Case Study: Flad Architects achieves a firm-wide image library and faster workflows with OpenAsset

Creating a firm-wide image library at Flad Architects

Flad Architects, a Madison-based firm that designs healthcare, higher education and science & technology facilities, needed a better way to manage thousands of images used across its U.S. offices. The Madison marketing support team was responsible for presentations and proposals but relied on a congested local network where files were hard to search and retrieve, slowing workflows and frustrating staff.

The firm implemented OpenAsset as a centralized digital asset management system, added an enterprise license and created project-specific categories; the system automatically generates usable sizes while preserving original high-resolution files. As a result, teams can quickly find and share images for proposals and presentations, designers access originals when needed, workflows are much more efficient, and staff time is saved—backed by responsive vendor support.
