Case Study: Springfield Clinic achieves 50% staff adoption and rapid employee engagement with theEMPLOYEEapp

Creative Communications and Engagement Strategies Spur Immediate Results in Deploying Mobile App for 2,200 Employees

Springfield Clinic, a large private multi‑specialty medical clinic with over 2,200 medical and administrative employees across 50 locations, faced ineffective internal communications—reliance on email, an underused intranet and siloed newsletters that failed to engage staff. To reach employees without regular computer access and boost morale and unity, Springfield Clinic partnered with APPrise Mobile and deployed a branded mobile solution using theEMPLOYEEapp (SC Network).

Using theEMPLOYEEapp, APPrise Mobile delivered a branded SC Network with an easy “Explore” content repository, targeted content via employee‑database integration, and a quick, low‑tech deployment process. After a three‑month pilot of ~50 users, the company‑wide rollout achieved nearly 50% adoption within five months (surpassing 1,200 users), 100% leadership adoption, a 96% user return rate, and transformed the app into the primary source for company information while increasing employee-driven content and engagement through contests and submissions.
