How does this differ from DAM

● Brand asset management focuses on approved digital files for brands

● These are typically final artwork, logos, branding, packaging, videos files

● Emphasis is on guiding end-users to the correct asset through brand guidelines, tools, best practice articles, and search.

North Plains Confidential

How does this differ from DAM?

● Key to BAM is controlling access, compliance, and ensuring effective distribution of assets
