Lamar Advertising (Baton Rouge, LA), a 108-year-old company that operates more than 150 subsidiary outdoor companies and 63 transit companies across the U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico, has integrated ActiveBatch job scheduler into its operations.
Lamar, whose portfolio of advertising options includes billboards, interstate logo signs, bus shelters, benches and buses, and digital billboards, incorporated the scheduler to centrally manage the constant image refreshes from the digital webcams and the company’s complement of accounting and operations functions. Using the product’s central dashboard, Integrated Jobs Library, event-based architecture and “production ready” job steps, ActiveBatch also helps users optimize enterprise resources as well as expedite the IT-workload automation process.
