Scaling Global Operations: A Premier Center of Excellence for a Leading Insurer

Discover how a global insurance leader partnered with Spoon Consulting to implement a high-performance Center of Excellence, supporting 2,000+ users across international markets.

Qu'est-ce qu'il y a dedans ?

  • Strategic reinforcement of a Group Competence Center to oversee global architecture and solution design.
  • Agile implementation of multi-cloud platforms across Europe and high-growth international markets.
  • Industrialized maintenance and technical audits to ensure long-term platform performance and compliance.

Contexte

Our client is one of the world’s foremost insurance and asset management groups, serving over 100 million customers across 57 countries. Having selected Salesforce as their core technology for Marketing and Distribution, they required a robust, scalable support model to manage their extensive global footprint and diverse entity requirements.

Défis

Managing a global Salesforce instance at this scale presents unique hurdles that can stall digital transformation:

  • Architectural Oversight: The need for a centralized “Design Authority” to validate technical choices and maintain a unified global standard.
  • Deployment Velocity: Safely and rapidly rolling out complex multi-cloud solutions across various international entities.
  • Platform Evolution: Continuously upgrading the system, including Lightning migrations and entity merges, without disrupting operations.

La Solution

To address these challenges, we established a dedicated Service Center to act as an extension of the client’s internal Competence Center. This model utilizes a multi-cloud architecture including Salesforce Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, et Experience Cloud. The solution features an “E-Application” for streamlined subscription processes and dedicated Agent Portals to enhance distributor collaboration.
