The corporation will introduce the digital media distribution management suite , developed by US-based firm Signiant , to provide intranet, satellite or public internet delivery services between its international offices.

The system, which will be used from March, includes a function that collects and prioritises 'content received from the field', a press release from Signiant said, allowing the news team to 'prioritise stories and allocate bandwith accordingly.'
