meet Bryan


the IT Pro


Bryan works here……


his case management application was getting long in the tooth…..


9 months ago, he faced three challenges…..

development time,

changerequests,

and user expectations…..


1/3 of the Bryan’s internal clients will be mobile workers by 2013


in the next 5 years, new hires will barely use email…..


1 in 12 on the planet use Facebook.

(1 in 3 for Bryan)


68% of employees are on LinkedIn….


1 in 5 play an online social game…..


20% customize their homepage…..


Bryan has been supporting old-style, rigid, enterprise applications…


his business has 290 resources are working on cases…..


Bryan understands that 80% of knowledge work is unstructured…..


…what people want.

…the way we work.

…how businesses operate.

the nature of their world has changed……


The new app needed to be more flexible to meet the needs and expectations of the new iWorker..…


meet Jenny


the new iWorker


Jenny also works here……


but occasionally works here……


her case work involves…


the Claims Team is located here…..


each case is unique…


each work item is complex


Jenny knows many of the rules and policies….


but is not an expert, so guardrails do help…


no assignment has a pre-determined outcome…


So Jenny found her way around working within a large team, sometimes from a remote location....


but she would ask Bryan......


about sharing case information, understanding the rules, and serving customers with urgent needs…


let’s not forget Jenny’s boss Tom….


Tom spends over 2 hours a day searchingfor information and compiling reports…...


business demands changed constantly…


No insight into real time needs or bottlenecks…..


9 months ago Jenny and Tom were using these tools..…


Bryan did his research…..


Thanks to Bryan, today they use these tools…..


Jenny uses adaptive case management to get her work done…..

Reviews images of the customer policy on her desktop

Content is presented in context.

She verifies details of the policy holder

Works through her assigned task list and adds notes to the case


Jenny’s colleagues can review the Case Folder for anything related to the case from start to finish

Everyone can see the Documents list that provides a complete history of any document sent to or received from the case


Jenny can create new tasks or add new processes…..

without waiting for Bryan’s code changes…..


on the road, Jenny is empowered and never out of touch…

Add data, images or content to a case, enabling her to process work from anywhere.

Add collaboration posts and then track them.

Find expertise immediately.


Her colleagues can also collaborate within in-progress work folders and view of any outstanding tasks or documents

Any event feed or IM session is integrated with the case.

Event feeds and collaboration are displayed in context


and what about Tom?.....


he now has visibility to everything his team is working on…..

Track performance and SLA’s to better understand how his business is servicing customers

See team backlogs and escalated work items

Keep track of his own tasks

Follow and participate in team discussions


and Bryan?.....


Bryan delivers solutions faster with out-of-the-box user applications….


Bryan eliminated the tug of war…..

Jenny is keeping customers happy…..

Tom has better visibility to his

business…..

Loan exception reporting and reviews were reduced from 7 days to seconds.


Claims processing time dropped 13% in first quarter.
