processes are working for you.Results are
benchmarked and recommendations are offered
including the associated benefits to be expected.
Your team can review the recommendations and
adopt based on your organizational goals and
priorities.Annual reviews measure the improved
ROI and track additional opportunities.
How do we know when we hit our
ROI targets?
Many projects measure success by achieving the go
live.That is only the start of the new adventure
though.Monitoring the impact across your
organization is tricky.
The insurance industry minimizes layoffs so
standard headcount methods aren’t appropriate.
Measuring the results requires tracking re-allocated
resources,monitoring work levels and productivity
benchmarks and valuing the transactions and
production rates.Our benchmarking process
identifies successes and opportunities in your
processes across your organization.

or upgrading one of our systems?

goals and desired benefits,agnostic of the
solutions,you will ensure that you can

in place?

are meeting your organization’s needs.Our unique
scoring program tells you how your organization is
doing against your peers with similar technology
levels and if there is optimization opportunity
within your existing solutions.
How are staff assessed?
Our program is about how your solutions are working
for your people.We review how efficiently they can
process common transactions and access information
required to service policyholders.It’s about spending
time on revenue and service instead of manual
system tasks.
If requested,training and coaching services can be
assessed separately.

recommendations?
Frequently,recommendations can be implemented
with minimal expenses through system
configurations,automation settings and document
set ups.Other solutions may require the engagement
of your vendor or additional efforts.
The program helps identify and prioritize the
recommendations and assist with informed decisions
based on ROI and impact to your organization.Your
organization can then assess the recommendations
based on their time,scope and budgetary constraints.
