Advancing Insurance Modernization and Actuarial Transformation
Client (Industry): Insurance, Life and Annuities
Delivery Model & Specialty Area: Staff Augmentation
Date Range: 2019-Ongoing
Client Context:
A national insurance carrier was advancing technology modernization, employee benefits, go-to-market, and actuarial transformation initiatives across a complex operating environment. The work required support for data onboarding, business systems analysis, senior change management, and actuarial data process improvement. Within actuarial transformation, the client created a dedicated organization focused on improving the data used by actuaries, automating actuarial data processes, and maturing a newly implemented AI-enabled analytics platform. Without specialized technical and change management capacity, the client risked delays across modernization workstreams, reduced visibility into transformation efforts, and slowed progress toward actuarial data and analytics modernization goals.
