Coforge Helps QBE implement Pega Robotic Process Automation (RPA)

Challenges.

As part of its digital transformation program, QBE needed a way to free up employees’ time so they could focus on delivering greater value for customers–reducing manual tasks, benefiting the insurer, and boosting customer satisfaction in the process.

Solution.

Coforge assisted QBE European Operations (QBE UK & Europe) by automating 40+ processes across claims, credit control, underwriting and re-insurance departments using Pega Robotics in a phased manner

These processes include reading and extracting data from documents/emails, opening, and filing emails, and performing calculations in various applications. Applications include claims management system, policy centre, payment systems, document management system and interact with windows, web-based applications.

RPA bots are scheduled and on completion, pass status of execution of each record to a human through email & reports, so employees are put to work where it matters most – for example, resolving an exception from report. Using Pega Robotics, handlers were able to free up hundreds of hours per week, while bots across both teams automate, speed up processes, and ensure the right information is delivered to the right people. Not only are they saving insurers time, but customers too.

The impact.

Coforge has delivered Pega RDA & RPA services in partnership with QBE EO from 2020 onwards to improve customer service and free up employees to work on more strategic tasks across the business.

Market proven attended and unattended automation solution has benefited on enhancing customer servicing capability of QBE with robots able to run 12 hours a day 5 days per week, monitored and managed through Pega Robot Manager.

Coforge has exceeded industry standards for RPA by following RPA best practices and by implementing the latest features such as, Robot Auto-Balancing CyberArk Integration and enabling parallel processing for quicker resolution. RPA integration with Pega Case – for example, one of the automations is run using various parameters counting to 45+ RPA automations processing around 15,000 transactions per week.
