By digital processes in times of technological change

Processes from a single source

We combine our specialist and technical knowledge with over 20 years of industry experience to analyse and optimise your processes. As part of our digital business models, we support you in the digitalisation of your core processes and actively help to shape the technological change. With our business development, we assist you with the long-term changes affecting the insurance industry and provide you with consultation in a tailored way that’s right for you, letting you see the big picture.

Digital business models

Customers expect to receive exhaustive information and a round-the-clock service that can be reached by both analogue and digital means. Your sales partners, on the other hand, want to receive a comprehensive overview of your inventories. On top of that, legislative guidelines as well as palpable competitors in the form of start-ups are once again shaking up requirements. We use our sales expertise to optimise your processes and adapt them to the latest challenges facing the industry as well as the ones that are on the horizon.

Below are just some of the topics covered by our portfolio:

  • Omni-channel management
  • Digital customer interfaces
  • End customer portals
  • Sales portals/broker extranet
  • Digital sales processes
  • Customer experience management
  • Customer relationship management (CRM)/distributor relationship management (DRM)

The key component in the application process is the assessment of biometric risks. We have gained extensive knowledge concerning the risk assessment process from a diverse range of customer projects, meaning we can offer the following services:

  • Selecting a suitable risk assessment tool
  • Optimising the assessment process, taking various different IT system into account
  • Integrating the new risk assessment tool into the current IT landscape

It may be the case that your current system is incompatible with several future-oriented possibilities such as process optimisations and continuous digitalised procedures. Solutions can only meet your customers’ and employees’ expectations if they are built on the foundation of a modern and flexible system landscape. We work out the most suitable options for you and work together with you to implement them.

Our services for optimising your inventory processes include:

  • System and data migration from expert analyses, to system development, to quality assurance and system implementation
  • Digital workflow processes for input and output management
  • Analysis and assessment of cyber risks, such as through the use of a cyber risk tool
  • Regulatory projects to implement requirements for insurance companies
  • Specialist and technical support in the implementation and optimisation of corporate and industrial banking (along with retail banking), especially in terms of contract management.
  • Implementation and integration of digital signatures
  • Support and consultation regarding IT requirements for insurance companies, data portability and IT infrastructure library (ITIL)

If a customer makes a claim, their first contact with the insurer is through claims processing, service and indemnification. As simple, fast and above all uncomplicated claims regulation processes are expected, we act as the link between specialist departments and IT to support you in establishing smart, networked processes within your company.

Our offering includes:

  • Process optimisation for your claims/benefits management
  • Implementation of digital claims processes
  • Fighting insurance fraud (fraud detection)
  • Development of mobile solutions for claims regulation processes linked to third-party systems
  • Optimisation and IT technical support for (disability) benefit review processes

Processing reinsurance contracts includes reviewing and evaluating the risk, the pricing and wording process and concluding and managing the contract. It calls for a process that you can support, accelerate and standardise through the use of appropriate IT systems.

We work together with you using our well-founded knowledge in the reinsurance sector to realise solutions that are the perfect fit for your situation and your processes.

Our services include:

  • Management and support in the introduction of portal solutions for communication between primary insurers, reinsurance brokers and reinsurers (especially in the facultative reinsurance sector)
  • Specialist and technical support for ceded reinsurance processes
  • Process optimisation in the underwriting and pricing of reinsurance

Digitalisation is changing how cooperative relationships are formed within organisations and it is also making far-reaching changes to all company dimensions – from the strategic vision and company management, to the organisational structures and process organisations, to the IT landscape – a necessity. However, no one solution is perfect for achieving a ‘digital network culture’.

Our experts support you in strategic realignment, reducing the complexity of your organisation and implementing strategic transformations. The key issues here are in the areas of business transformation, change management and business process analysis.

Technological change

A successful digital transformation is an organisational challenge first and foremost that requires a clear strategic vision in terms of management and content. However, the current level of maturity needs to be determined to achieve this goal. Only then can the necessary measures and action recommendations be derived.

We offer support for the following steps in particular:

  • Carrying out online self-assessments – including the necessary analyses
  • Carrying out interviews – including the necessary analyses
  • Insurance-specific action recommendations
  • High-level transformation plan

Process automation enables duties that were previously assumed by your employees to be transferred to IT systems. For example, using chatbots as digital assistants in conjunction with artificial intelligence (AI) ensures internal and external efficiency in companies and optimises customer interaction. For your customers, this process means they receive answers to their requests faster and a round-the-clock service increases their satisfaction. Your employees no longer have to take care of standard requests, allowing them to tackle more complex requests more effectively.

Take full advantage of the benefits of automation.
