Percana selects AWD to transform customer experience

Percana, an outsourcing services and software provider to the global life and pensions industry, has chosen AWD to automate its clients' business process transactions. The implementation is expected to assist Percana in delivering faster policy administration resolutions while driving bottom-line savings and reducing paper consumption, as well as removing dependence on paper files.

AWD is a leading business process management (BPM) platform from DST Global Solutions. With its focus on helping companies to complete administrative tasks effectively, accurately and on time, the use of AWD, together with the innovative application hosting service provided by International Financial Data Services (IFDS) in the UK, will support Percana in processing a higher volume of transactions in a shorter period of time. This in turn is expected to benefit Percana by improving the quality of customer service and overall cost efficiency.

Eugene Larmon, CEO at Percana, commented: “We needed to identify the right BPM application to support the achievement of our strategic goals. AWD meets the needs of our broader business transformation initiative by bringing together the business and IT in a collaborative approach to solutions design and development.”

Percana manages a wide range of life and pensions products throughout the full policy life cycle via an integrated front-, middle- and back-office solution. The company employs over 250 people based at its headquarters in Dublin.

Tony Armour, Managing Director of DST Global Solutions Business Process Solutions division, said: "We believe the key advantage to AWD is empowering business users to manage their processes in a timely and efficient manner. AWD helps organisations get the work done by bringing people, processes and systems together. We are very pleased to have Percana on board and are confident we can assist the company in achieving its business goals.”

The implementation of AWD was accomplished in less than six months, from start to finish, and has been delivered in partnership with IFDS in the UK. DST Global Solutions also enabled Percana to start back-scanning their paper files into AWD only a month and a half after the start of the project.
