Case Studies

Engagements, in detail.

Reinsurance

Treaty Platform Test Governance

Challenge: A multi-vendor treaty reinsurance platform transformation carried fragmented test ownership across four delivery partners, with no shared definition of "done."
Approach: Designed a unified test governance model: shared risk taxonomy, cross-vendor entry/exit criteria, and a single programme-level quality dashboard reporting into the steering board.
Outcome: Reduced defect escape rate by 42% across the transformation.

Insurance — Claims

Claims Modernisation Assurance

Challenge: A legacy claims system replacement needed to prove parity with 15 years of business rules while introducing new automation, under regulatory scrutiny.
Approach: Built a risk-based test model prioritising high-claim-value and high-complexity scenarios first, paired with automated regression suites covering core settlement paths.
Outcome: Cut regression cycle time by a third while improving coverage confidence.

Underwriting Platform Quality Uplift

Challenge: Five delivery teams were shipping underwriting platform features independently with inconsistent test automation maturity and no shared quality bar.
Approach: Embedded as fractional quality lead to establish a shift-left automation foundation, a shared component test library, and quality coaching across each team.
Outcome: Shift-left foundation adopted across all five delivery teams.

Financial Services — Automation

Straight-Through Processing Assurance

Challenge: A straight-through processing initiative automating manual financial operations needed independent assurance before executive sign-off, with no prior test strategy in place.
Approach: Ran an independent programme quality audit, defined exit criteria tied to operational risk tolerance, and advised the executive steering committee through go-live readiness.
Outcome: Delivered evidence-based go-live confidence to the executive committee.
