NBCU and GroupM Test Is a Big Step for Cross-Platform Measurement
Briefly

NBCUniversal and GroupM have teamed up to tackle the challenge of standardizing ad creatives across different platforms. The lack of uniform Ad-IDs has created discrepancies in how advertisements are tracked and measured, leading to potentially significant revenue impacts. Their collaboration with industry entities includes the development of the Ad Creative ID Framework (ACIF) aimed at establishing best practices for creative tracking. Early tests suggest that integrating Ad-IDs into existing systems could significantly improve cross-platform analytics and reporting accuracy.
"[An Ad-ID] is a persistent identifier per creative that is standard everywhere throughout the advertising ecosystem. Whether you run it in television, on streaming, or with Publisher A or Publisher B, that creative still has the same identifier."
