Success StoryBreaking Silos, Building Single Source of Truth for Claims Analytics

A leading personal lines insurance company struggled with their legacy data ecosystem that was built on multiple on-premises technologies. They were looking for a modern, unified data model that could improve their BI and reporting, so they approached Exavalu.

Challenge

1

Working with the legacy data ecosystem had become difficult for our client. Data silos and the absence of data governance constrained their reporting capability.

2

They did not have a single source of truth to rely on. Their diverse tech stacks further resulted in higher maintenance costs.
