Initial Environment

As part of a routine refresh cycle, a reputable Property & Casualty Insurance Company embarked on the journey to digitally transform the look and feel of their public facing websites and mobile applications. The goal was to create a modern aesthetic with innovative features that would improve policyholder adoption and increase their return on investment (ROI). While they engaged a marketing agency to generate the relevant landscape analysis, persona definitions, style guides and SEO strategy, they were looking for a partner who could work with the technical leads at the marketing agency to flawlessly develop against the wireframes and prototypes. This created an opportunity for RD Global to work very intimately with the management team and share early opinions through a more technical lense. This created an environment where RD was able to leverage industry experience and challenge the technical leads at the marketing agency to push beyond the status quo by elevating the level of creativity while the wireframes were rough layout concepts. Once websites were launched, RD Global assumed the role of a trusted advisor who led additional user experience and development efforts for mobile, claims and document management features on the websites.

Stakeholders we worked with.

The RD Global team worked with:
