Case Study: How Brightspot transformed content management in the research industry

Explore how a leading defense intelligence and analysis firm used Brightspot’s content management solutions to significantly overhaul its long-standing research publishing business.
The firm’s difficulty was finding a sufficiently capable content management solution that was also highly mature and could deliver in a highly integrated and complex environment.
They needed a CMS that could handle two main types of content:
- Large amounts of unstructured editorial content such as news, analyses, maps and text for hard-copy print materials.
- Long-form “evergreen” reference copy that might extend to over 100,000 words and tens of thousands of supporting documents and assets.
Sitting within a complex content ecosystem involving five separate CMSs, Brightspot’s headless CMS implementation for the group is now a core component in helping to deliver the organization’s critically important intelligence insights.
