Organisational challenges
MAPFRE has become the leader in the insurance industry in Spain, and is rapidly expanding in the international market. This rapid growth poses some organisational challenges as the company seeks to coordinate operations around the world. MAPFRE decided that BPM was the solution that would provide the scalability and efficiency needed to get ahead in the global market, so it made the decision to use webMethods as its corporate BPMS.
Operational improvement
One of the most important challenges facing MAPFRE was the improvement of its operational management system.
MAPFRE's operational management system, known internally as the Operational Management System (OMS), is one of the main applications used by the company's commercial employees in Spain. The system has been enhanced with BPMS webMethods to give it the scalability and added functionality the business requires. The latest edition, SGOv2, has integrated more than 10,000 users in 5,000 different locations. From which more than 250,000 process instances are initiated each month, and close to 8,000,000 tasks are managed each year.
The OMS is an operational tool used to send and scale requests to technical areas or central services for certain cases when brokers, agents or sales managers require special authorisation. This may include issuing policies, endorsements, policy cancellations, receipt management, or requesting quotes for prices on specific products.
Definition of a BPM framework
We collaborated in systems architecture design to support business needs, providing it with the scalability, high availability and isolation required by an infrastructure of this size.
We also worked on defining a BPM framework to facilitate the incorporation of new business solutions into the corporate BPMS platform, including the defining of a corporate task tray that enables users to see which applications remain pending, who made them, when they were made, and what their current status is. This is a significant improvement over the old email-based process, which was slow and not transparent. It is now possible to track each request and see who is working on it and how long it takes to process it. The new system makes it easy to search for any bottlenecks that may exist, and determine whether the process itself needs to be improved, or whether any staff reassignment is needed.
