Scope Highlights
- 130,000 annual service cases
- Post-issue certificates
- Underwriting requirements
- Ingenium policy admin system
- Life 70 policy admin system
- AWD case management system
- Robotic Process Automation (RPA)
Challenge
Insurer sought to automate high-volume tasks, including post-issue certificate servicing requests and underwriting requirements receipts. Processing these requests required back office operations team to:
- Utilize their case management systems to retrieve assigned requests,
- Review and confirm client policy information, and
- Manually update existing client records.
Solution
Automation established a high-volume processing framework to perform initial in-scope service transactions and that was also extensible to rapidly add more service transactions as needed in the future. Solution connects to and monitors the Insurer’s AWD case management system for service requests, applies business rules for handling instructions and makes required adjustments to policies and contracts in the respective admin platforms, including confirming success and closing the case.
