CGI HELPS TO POSITION CORNHILL INSURANCE AT THE FOREFRONT OF CUSTOMER SERVICE
GIOS is implemented at Cornhill Schemes
New research report predicts Worksite Marketing explosion in next six months
CGI Group (Europe) Ltd has implemented its insurance administration solution,
GIOS (Global Insurance Open Solution) across Cornhill Insurance Schemes
Division, part of the Allianz Group, which will help Cornhill achieve
superior service levels both now and in the future.
GIOS is a highly flexible, modular, web-based solution which is capable
of running all types of administration for all forms of insurance product.
The first stage of the GIOS implementation is now live and covers core
online processing including claims, policies, direct debits and credit
cards. Additional functionality will be released in stages, allowing Cornhill
to gain benefits from those parts of the system that have gone live while
others are still being developed or undergoing testing.
Graham Norris, divisional manager, operations, Cornhill Insurance said,
“We were impressed with the high levels of functionality within GIOS
as well as the ease with which it can be customised. Our new, state-of-the-art
administration system has been specifically designed for us with IT developers
from across the Allianz Group and CGI. As well as bringing impressive
reporting capabilities to our customers, it will also allow faster set-up
times for new business and claims handling.”
GIOS has the ability to introduce new and enhanced business processes
based on the maximum reuse of existing component parts, which saves significant
amounts of time. Time is also saved by the high level of automation that
GIOS provides meaning that a single transaction triggers a series of automated
processes, reducing manual procedures.
Gary Boni, business development director at CGI Group Europe comments,
“CGI’s successful partnership with Cornhill demonstrates the
significant benefits that insurance companies can reap from GIOS. The
levels of functionality, as well as the flexibility of GIOS, were key
attractions to Cornhill and CGI is delighted that GIOS is helping Allianz
Cornhill achieve outstanding customer service.”
Norris concludes, “GIOS enables Cornhill to hold one consistent view
of its customers. This brings us way ahead of the competition in our ability
to deliver impressive results to customers.”
