Salesforce Managed Services reduced operating costs by 22% for leading healthcare insurance provider

Business Challenges

With a sprawling global business presence, the client maintains selling systems designed for each of their existing operative market segments. The system processes multifarious and fine-grained information that undergo frequent enhancements with the availability of new data and information sources in the channel. This makes it crucial for the company to reduce the complexity of information and subsequently expedite channel operations and stay ahead of the competition and emerging players.

However, while optimizing the sales operations system, the client faced several challenges, such as:

• Absence of an in-house team of nimble, experienced technologists
• Inadequate delivery and maintenance of the selling system
• Lack of collaboration with senior business analysts
• High cost of sales operations

With Salesforce Managed services the client aspired to achieve the following:

• Staffing levels delivered in line with demand
• Increased productivity
• Reduced recruitment costs
• Absence management
• Increased staff retention
• Reduced employment related liability
• Consolidated invoicing
• Extensive Management Information
• KPI driven service

Our past experiences of working with the client’s sponsors and aiding them in maintaining their legacy selling system played a crucial role in the client choosing us as their Salesforce managed services partner.
