In the era of millennials and Gen Z, where instant gratification is the key to a content consumer, insurance companies constantly feel the massive urge to step up their tech game.
Whereas previously, end-to-end digital transformation was considered an ‘optional but profiting nonetheless’ investment, it has become a non-negotiable now. Technical inefficiency where stakeholders are on the receiving end is no longer excusable. Global interconnectedness has led consumers to become more in tune with technological advancements, and they expect the same from insurance providers — particularly with respect to security, rapidity, efficiency, and quality of service.
This is where ServiceNow FSO comes in as an aid to enhance customer experience and fill up the cracks in insurance companies’ core operations. Let us focus on some ways in which FSO has transformed the way insurance companies function.
Seamless Customer Experience
A seamless and friction-free customer experience has been one of the best ways for insurance companies to set themselves a notch higher than their competitors. ServiceNow FSO makes the process easier with its provision for end-to-end customer journey automation, right from the point of issuing policies to the end of the claims settlement.
ServiceNow FSO puts up a smooth front-end customer interface to facilitate automated conversational support for customers, cutting down on time-taking procedures. Additionally, ServiceNow mends and joins together the siloed middle and back-end business operational processes to speed up the delivery of customer requirements and lower operational expenditure.
Automation of Processes
Conversational automated services either provide solutions to the customers in real-time or guide them to avail of the required services from the company. They even redirect them to a customer experience manager who can interact to deliver an adequate solution.
Automation of relatively smaller, repetitive, and manual operational processes enables insurance companies to initiate more meaningful interactions with customers. This leads to improved workflows, especially pertaining to the claims management systems.
By automating the claims management processes, insurers can focus simply on maintaining the accuracy of claims processing and acquiring real-time updates on the client’s claims status. This end-to-end automation of operations thus speeds up not only the process of claims expeditions but also claims adjudication.
One Platform, One Data Model
FSO streamlines data processes by allowing the connection of the insurance data model with the ServiceNow platform. This:
- Speeds up development efforts
- Helps insurance carriers manage configuration data
In the absence of a well-connected data model system, business operations are bound to be clouded by endless paperwork and filing, followed by continuous switching between different systems and platforms to gather and process data. ServiceNow’s single platform solution streamlines the business processes into a smooth journey starting right from FNOLs down to claims settlement.
Insurance carriers can also detect KPIs across insurance processes like underwriting, the serving of policies, and the processing of individual performance, all simultaneously in one single platform.

The platform further helps generate various templates for effective interaction with customers.

This helps in nurturing a more personalized customer experience along with providing informed solutions that go beyond the basic assistance customers expect.
