Yes. A well-governed DAM lives or dies on its metadata model, and we verify this skill directly. Our AEM Assets managers design metadata schema forms in the Schema Editor, mapping fields to the correct namespaces (dc, xmp, cq, custom) so values survive ingestion and round-trip through XMP write-back to the binary. They build controlled vocabularies and tag taxonomies under the Tagging console, configure required fields and validation, and set up smart tags via Adobe Sensei for auto-classification where it is licensed. They also define metadata profiles so the right schema applies to the right folder, and processing profiles so renditions and metadata extraction run on ingestion. The PM confirms whether you are on AEM 6.5 Assets or AEM Assets as a Cloud Service so the manager targets the correct schema tooling.

Yes. Asset workflow automation is a core engagement. On AEM 6.5 the manager configures the DAM Update Asset workflow and custom workflow models adding process steps for metadata enrichment, watermarking, approval routing, and publishing and tunes the workflow launchers and transient workflows so the JCR is not flooded with workflow instances. On AEM Assets as a Cloud Service they work with asset processing profiles and asset microservices (the cloud-native, off-instance processing pipeline) and post-processing workflows for the steps microservices do not cover. They set up review-and-approve task workflows, expiry and version management, and folder-level processing profiles. The result is a hands-off ingestion pipeline where assets arrive, get enriched, generate renditions, and become available without manual steps.

Yes. Renditions and Dynamic Media are central to multi-channel delivery. The manager configures image and thumbnail renditions, web-optimised renditions, and named/dynamic renditions sized to your breakpoints, and prunes unnecessary renditions to control storage. For Dynamic Media (Scene7) they set up the cloud configuration, image presets and smart crops, viewers for zoom and 360/spin, video encoding profiles, and the image-serving and on-the-fly URL syntax so a single master asset serves every channel and device. They handle the hybrid vs. Scene7 delivery decision, secure delivery, and CDN behaviour. The PM confirms which channels and front ends consume your assets so the manager configures the right presets and delivery model.

A PM is assigned within 10 minutes of booking and scopes your requirement on the first call. For a clearly defined task a metadata schema, a processing profile, a Dynamic Media preset, a bulk metadata fix a vetted AEM Assets manager typically starts the same day. We offer three engagement models: project-based (fixed deliverable with milestones, ideal for a schema redesign or a migration), dedicated (a manager embedded with your team for a sprint or longer, ideal for an ongoing DAM build-out), and on-call burst capacity (hours drawn down as ingestion or delivery issues arise). You can scale up or down between sprints and cancel after any engagement. The PM coordinates with your creative, marketing, and DevOps teams so folder structure and permissions are never a blocker.

Yes. Asset migration is one of the most common engagements. The manager plans the move using the Bulk Import tool to ingest from Azure or S3, or the migration tooling for AEM-to-AEM transfers, preserving folder hierarchy, metadata, tags, and asset relationships. They reconcile schema differences between the source and the cloud target, decide which renditions to regenerate via asset microservices versus carry over, and validate counts and checksums after import. They handle large-volume throttling, deduplication, and the cutover plan so authoring and delivery are not disrupted. They also set up the new processing profiles and metadata profiles so freshly imported assets behave correctly. The PM aligns the manager with your infrastructure team on storage and network so the migration runs cleanly end to end.
