INSURANCE

Manage providers reliably. Keep critical processes in view.

For insurers, dependencies often involve external services and digital providers. We help you understand the importance of service providers to your operations and organise their management transparently.

Example: a shared IT service can support several business processes, making the consequences of a disruption particularly significant.

WHAT MATTERS

The connection between provider, service and process matters.

One provider may support several business teams. At the same time, different contracts may depend on the same provider or technical infrastructure. A contract list alone therefore does not reveal where dependencies are concentrated or what a disruption would mean.

We bring together the perspectives of procurement, IT, risk management and business teams. Your existing policies provide the framework. The aim is consistent information, clear responsibilities and decisions that remain traceable during ongoing operations.

OUR CONSULTING

What we do for you.

We start where your team needs support. We agree a scope that fits your goals, existing foundations and available capacity.

Map providers and purchased services

We structure provider, contract and service data and map it to the responsible teams and processes. This reveals multiple relationships and information gaps, giving your team a shared basis for further assessment.

Manage providers systematically

Assess dependencies and disruption impacts

Together with process owners, we examine the consequences of an interruption and the available alternatives. Concentration of several services with one provider can also form part of the analysis. This aligns management attention with the actual need for action.

Assess disruption consequences

Organise collaboration and decisions

We clarify who provides information, assesses risks, approves actions and tracks implementation. We incorporate existing procedures for outsourcing and IT services, making coordination easier and avoiding duplicate data maintenance.

Develop a target state and roadmap

Prepare actions and switching options

We help consolidate open tasks for provider management into a shared plan. These may include information requirements, regular reviews or preparation for a change of provider. Reports make progress visible to everyone involved.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Good to know.

View all industries
Does supplier management work for an insurer?

Yes. We adapt the methods to external services and their importance to your processes. This includes service quality, dependencies, responsibilities and the options available during a disruption.

How does this fit with existing risk and outsourcing processes?

We build on your existing procedures and agree interfaces with the responsible teams. Your organisation's business and regulatory requirements inform the design of data, processes and responsibilities.

How transparent are your provider dependencies?
