The challenge

Paper-based and disconnected brokerage processes made it difficult to see progress across the policy lifecycle.

The change

The broker created an OutSystems cloud platform connecting front- and back-office workflows, task routing and management information.

The outcome

The source reports average customer-query resolution moving from fifteen days to six, a 60% reduction, alongside a more standardized policy-service workflow.

DIGITAL ALCHIMIA’S DELIVERY PERSPECTIVE

What could this approach unlock for your business?

The useful next step is to connect the story to your own operating reality. Here are the questions we would bring into that conversation.

01

Make progress visible before adding more automation.

Identify the stages a customer query crosses and where the next owner needs information from another team. Agree a shared status and the evidence for completing each handoff. This helps developers connect automation to a process the business can understand and improve rather than accelerating an unclear queue.

02

Keep the outcome measure specific to the service.

Customer-query resolution, policy placement and claims handling are different journeys. Define the measure and acceptance evidence for the workflow being changed. OutSystems professionals can reinforce the delivery backlog while service owners keep those distinctions visible when reviewing operating performance.
