Gore Mutual Insurance Case Study Gore Mutual has realized that they can no longer operate effectively unless they redesign their current systems and build a document management system. They want to build/configure this document system using their internal IT resources along with some additional contracted employees as needed. Currently they process all their claims through two customer support centres. One is located in Cambridge Ontario and one is located in Fredricton New Brunswick. A central 1-800 number routes all clients calls to these 2 support centres. Client calls include policy information changes, quotations, new coverage and services, and all support calls are automatically routed to one of the client support centres. The area code of the actual call as the primary routing criteria. Each centre is responsible for clients in a specific region of the country and maintains paper files for the clients in that region. If a call is misrouted or if a call comes from an area code not defined in the system, the call will be rerouted manually by an operator. Gore mutual is developing several new business applications to support the growth of its' business in new regions. From the CEO's point of view and with support from the board, the goal is to grow the size of the business dramatically - a minimum of 15% by 2028. This redesign and digital document system will improve efficiency and increase productivity. If growth goes as planned, Gore Mutual would like to add an additional call centre to handle the new business. In addition, for some of the new regions which it would like to do business, there are many regulatory differences compared to the areas in which they currently do business, which means that new processes and operating methods will need to be designed and implemented. Core business requirements: a. New call centre operator applications feature - ability to add, modify, client data in real time b. New management reports for internal and external use (regulator and board reports) c. Electronic document management
