Case Study: POWER Engineers achieves scalable, secure photo management with OpenAsset

Optimizing photo management processes at POWER Engineers

POWER Engineers, a global consulting engineering firm, had amassed over 3 TB of uncontrolled photos after rapid growth. A small marketing team managed the library on a network file system with no permission controls or clear vetting process, creating bottlenecks, overuse of a few standard images, and limited library growth. The company needed a scalable process and tool to acquire, vet, and control access to images.

After a discovery process they selected OpenAsset, leveraging its integration with Deltek Vision to reuse familiar keywords and metadata. Role-based permissions and a clear traffic‑light approval workflow opened the library for company-wide searching while keeping sensitive assets restricted, and an OpenAsset project manager provided training and onboarding materials. The result is a documented, scalable photo workflow with clear ownership and approval status, increased engagement from project teams, reduced reliance on tribal knowledge, and a growing, better-managed image library.
