Case study / POC
Selecting a new claims platform
- Situation
- An insurer must replace a core platform that will process customer data, under regulatory expectations for vendor due diligence.
- Approach
- Business, technical and security requirements are defined, the RFP is run with clear criteria, shortlisted vendors are assessed for risk, and the contract is negotiated.
- Outcome
- The insurer selects a vendor with a documented, defensible process and a contract that properly allocates data and security risk.
