In the dynamic world of digital technology, companies are turning to advanced Content Management Systems (CMS) like Adobe AEM Franklin to gain a competitive edge. This case study delves into the transformative journey of XYZ Pharmaceuticals – a major player in the pharmaceutical industry – as they successfully adopted Adobe’s AEM Franklin, also known as Project Helix or Composability, to overcome digital marketing challenges.

Challenges Faced by XYZ Pharmaceuticals

  • Outdated CMS Hindrance:
    • The existing CMS posed significant obstacles to swiftly launching core products and effectively communicating with stakeholders.
    • Legacy systems lacked the flexibility and agility required to keep pace with rapidly evolving market demands.
  • Complex Website Management:
    • Managing multiple websites within an enterprise setting proved arduous due to default public repositories and environments.
    • Lack of centralized control hampered the coordination and synchronization of content across various digital properties.
  • Quality Assurance Issues
    • Features were often delivered without proper quality assurance checks, resulting in numerous iterations and follow-up efforts to rectify errors.
    • Inadequate testing processes led to an increased risk of functionality failures and user experience inconsistencies.
  • Communication Challenges:
    • The process of content creation, authorization, and delivery lacked contextual information, particularly concerning micro requirements and specific target audiences.
    • Poor communication channels between stakeholders resulted in misunderstandings and delays in content delivery timelines.
  • Product and Backlog Management:
    • Insufficient management of product backlogs and project timelines led to challenges in prioritization and resource allocation.
    • Unclear visions and objectives made it difficult for teams to align their efforts with overarching business goals, resulting in inefficiencies and missed opportunities.
  • Consistency Across Channels:
    • Maintaining consistent branding, messaging, and an omnichannel approach across all digital touchpoints proved challenging.
    • Disparate content management systems and decentralized content governance structures contributed to inconsistencies in content tone, style, and messaging.
