Software Quality Assurance
Finding the balance
between breadth and depth of testing
Software quality assurance has become a crucial challenge for the insurance industry
IT departments in the insurance industry typically operate within complex organisational structures. On top of that they have many integration points to consider.
When you are dealing with several business units and companies and combine it with many vendors and systems, it might be difficult to maintain quality and flexibility. As speed of innovation in the insurance industry increases, software quality assurance has become critical. Many insurers struggle to find capacity and skills in software test management to achieve the right balance between breadth and depth of testing.
We advise how to attain short
time-to-market without losing high quality of software
We build an end-to-end test strategy
and support software test management
We assess the quality
of software testing processes
We automate the testing process
We coordinate end-to-end testing,
which involves internal and off-shored teams
We monitor the performance of software
That is why we worked out a unique approach aimed at selecting a vendor who is the best match for real business needs
of our clients. Here is how it works:
We start by understanding our client’s business strategy. Often our business advisory team helps the client to (re)formulate business problems and goals to get the most from potential system capabilities. At this stage we are getting familiar with the culture of organisation as well.
With this landscape ready we conduct a tactical business process
optimisation and prepare IT architecture review to define an ”ideal world situation” and put it in the context of other systems that will affect the future migration.
We prepare requirements reflecting the
”ideal world situation” and prioritise them based on the business value and feasibility.
Then it is time for preparation of the Request for Proposal
procedure and documentation (incl. RFP, draft Contract).
Afterwards we initiate the selection process and coordinate it.
At this phase we help our client to learn about a prospective vendor as much
as possible using selection funnel. It includes:
a. A quantitative, algorithmic way of comparing vendors’
answers. We compare business value, TCO;
implementation risks, including the supplier risks, etc.
b. Proof of Concept (PoC) facilitation. PoC helps us to verify
co-operation and technology risks. It often results in new
ideas and solutions that add value to offers.
c. Preparation of a short list of recommended suppliers with
a list of key pros and cons for their selection,
d. Client assistance in making the final decision.
Finally, we help in the selection process closing. We assist or carry-out contract negotiations and prepare
the final version for signing.
