Why companies choose us
Client-side DAM experience
Huddart Consulting brings the perspective of someone who has worked inside DAM programs—not only advised them from the outside. Kristina Huddart has held roles including DAM Librarian, Product Owner, and Head of Creative Operations. Her experience spans finance, cultural heritage, energy, health and wellness, academic research, publishing, retail, eCommerce, events, startups, and nonprofit environments.
Customer outcome: Orange Logic decisions are informed by practical experience managing users, content, governance, and daily DAM operations.
People, process, data, and technology
Huddart Consulting approaches DAM as a business practice rather than a one-time technology project. Our work considers the people who need to participate, the processes content must follow, the data that makes assets useful, and the technology that enables the operation.
Customer outcome: Orange Logic becomes embedded in the way teams work rather than operating as a separate content repository.
Independent, senior-level guidance
Companies work directly with an experienced DAM specialist throughout strategy, configuration, rollout, adoption, and optimization. This focused model reduces layers between the customer’s challenge and the expert helping solve it.
Customer outcome: Clearer recommendations, faster decisions, and continuity across the DAM lifecycle.
Change management from the beginning
Huddart Consulting treats adoption as a core DAM workstream, not an activity added immediately before launch. Our approach considers stakeholders, communications, training, workflow changes, leadership support, user needs, and reinforcement from the beginning of the Orange Logic program. Huddart Consulting’s published guidance emphasizes that DAM value depends on users integrating the platform into regular business processes.
Customer outcome: Greater user confidence, stronger adoption, and a more complete return on the Orange Logic investment.
Education that builds internal capability
Huddart Consulting provides DAM education for executives, business sponsors, DAM managers, administrators, contributors, and end users. Training is aligned with each audience’s role, responsibilities, and expected outcomes rather than limited to a generic platform demonstration.
Customer outcome: Teams gain the knowledge and confidence required to own and evolve the DAM after launch.
AI informed by independent DAM research
Huddart Consulting researches how companies are applying AI across DAM and content operations. The 2026 State of AI in DAM and Content Operations research draws on input from more than 270 content operations professionals and examines practical value, adoption barriers, ecosystem integration, governance, and the factors required to scale AI successfully.
Customer outcome: AI priorities can be grounded in DAM readiness, trusted data, clear governance, and practical operating requirements.
