Digital Pioneers With Grown Complexity
Insurers rank among the most digitized enterprises in any industry – and have for decades. The insurance sector invested heavily in automation and IT early on. The result: powerful, historically grown system landscapes with defined processes, specialized calculation engines, and information management unmatched across industries in depth and reach – from input management and claims routing to fully integrated partner connectivity.
At the same time, insurers face significant competitive and regulatory pressure, must defend against cyberattacks, and need to drive down cost ratios consistently – claims, distribution, administrative, and IT costs determine market position. Beyond operational efficiency, the ability to differentiate is increasingly decisive: short innovation cycles and fast time-to-system for new products and services create real competitive advantages. Organizations that combine both – efficient core processes in policy administration, claims processing, and partner connectivity with rapid innovation in product design and customer communication – achieve lasting differentiation.
Sub-Segment Expertise
Life Insurance
Long-running contracts, complex tariff logic, and regulatory reporting requirements (Solvency II) make life insurance IT among the most challenging to modernize. Preserving decades of certified business logic while enabling modern analytics and customer portals requires deep actuarial and technical understanding – and an incremental approach that avoids big-bang risk.
Health Insurance
Health insurers face distinct challenges: real-time claims processing, provider network management, and digital health integration. STP optimization and targeted process automation can reduce claims processing from days to minutes, freeing capacity for complex cases that require human judgment.
Property & Casualty
P&C insurers need speed – fast product launches, real-time pricing, and efficient claims handling. Modernizing tariff engines and claims systems compresses product innovation cycles to weeks, turning IT from a bottleneck into a competitive lever.
Mastering the Insurance Technology Stack
The insurance IT landscape spans a wide range of interconnected systems, each with domain-specific complexity:
Calculation Engines:
Legacy tariff and pricing engines, often COBOL-based, containing decades of certified actuarial logic that must be preserved through any modernization.
Portals:
Agent and customer self-service platforms that need to be modern, fast, and tightly integrated with core systems.
BiPRO Interfaces:
Industry-standard data exchange formats (BiPRO/GDV) requiring deep protocol-level expertise for reliable partner connectivity.
I/O Management:
Document input/output processing, from scan/OCR to intelligent document classification and automated routing.
Workflow Systems:
Claims processing workflows, underwriting pipelines, and approval chains – often the backbone of operational efficiency.
Partner Systems:
Broker management, reinsurance interfaces, and ecosystem integrations connecting insurers with their distribution and risk-transfer networks.
Our Insurance Offering
We combine deep insurance-domain knowledge with engineering capability across six core areas:
Core System Modernization
Incremental renovation of COBOL/PL/I policy administration and claims systems – preserving certified business logic, improving maintainability, and reducing dependency on retiring specialists. AI-accelerated migration compresses timelines from years to quarters.
Claims Automation & STP
End-to-end straight-through processing that brings cycle times under 5 minutes (industry average: 72 hours). Dark processing for standard claims, intelligent exception routing for complex cases, real-time monitoring dashboards for continuous optimization.
AI Integration
Fraud detection with behavioral analytics achieving 20–40% improvement in identification rates. Intelligent document processing for claims intake and correspondence. AI-powered underwriting support, seamlessly integrated into the existing system landscape.
DORA Compliance
ICT risk management assessments, resilience testing, and third-party oversight – grounded in code-level analysis of the actual systems. Regulatory requirements integrated into technical delivery as first-class concerns.
Managed Operations with Continuous Modernization
SLA-based application management for core insurance systems – with reserved modernization capacity in every engagement. Incident volumes decrease quarter over quarter because root causes are permanently eliminated.
Digital Platforms for Policyholders and Agents
Customer self-service portals for policy management, claims tracking, and document access. Agent platforms with real-time tariff calculation, portfolio overview, and integrated BiPRO connectivity. Mobile-first design with enterprise-grade security.
How We Help Insurers Stay Ahead
Custom Software, Reconsidered: A Smarter Framework for the Build-or-Buy Decision
Most enterprises treat "Make or Buy" as a single question. It isn't. Splitting it into two decisions – Product or Custom, then Build or Order – opens a better path to software that actually fits the business.
From Policy Number to Digital Relationship
Most German insurers still communicate with customers the way they did 20 years ago. Insurtechs are raising the bar fast. The answer isn't a new app bolted onto old systems – it's incremental back-end modernization across three concrete stages.
