Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts (BCBSMA), a not-for-profit health insurer that provides coverage to 2.4 million members, was looking to automate the content management process for a section of BlueWeb, its corporate intranet.

The company engaged Molecular to implement a solution that would automate internal processes and reduce labor costs.
