Sustainably meeting stakeholders needs Sample Clauses

Sustainably meeting stakeholders needs. The marketplace must respond to the needs of its stakeholders in a sustainable fashion that will outlast any given project. Primary categories of stakeholder includes PrestoCentre, community members and the suppliers. This can lead to tensions between the wish for a fully open and free to access marketplace desired by one contingent and issues of sustainability and feasibility of delivery faced by other participants. Our research explored other exemplars of active communities in audiovisual sphere. We mined the experience of our CoPs but also looked at other models of community action available. In particular, AMIA and FIAT/IFTA.

A persona allows us to model types of behaviour and consider the different needs of the different parts of the community.

Consumers and the active participants in Communities of Practice may wish to access the content, services and brokerage without cost to them. However, no marketplace operates without a business model in which both the consumer and the supplier are sustaining the costs of the marketplace’s existence. There are many modes of achieving this where the balance falls more on one party than the other ­ but someone is always bearing the costs. Even in apparently open systems, the reality is that the consumer is themselves usually contributing more than suppliers through the exploitation of their personal data (Facebook), their time/resources (Wikipedia) or an indirect charging model such as advertising or the freemium model (Google). The nature, scale and reach of the AV digital preservation community means that a fully open system could not be sustained purely from the supply side as the volume of demand cannot meet the costs of service delivery. ...
