New product launch


Worked closely with a client to identify gaps in the largely over-subscribed funeral insurance market. This resulted in a radical transformation of the solution, which incorporated leading edge attributes at the time. The solution was further endorsed, and rebranded by a leading retailer in rural and peri-urban South Africa. The solution addressed the following key pain points: Inconsistent monthly income; customary relationships; flexible contributions and a single policy to cover all of those you have a responsibility to cover.


System migration


Extensive experience in migrating primary operating systems, including the considerations of legacy issues, and development of workarounds to enable better operating environments. Active involvement from procurement, right through to execution and closure.


Process improvements


The interplay between the systems, the talent and the processes they follow often results in either great client outcomes and employee experiences or a high friction environment with high levels of redundancy, frustrating clients and employees alike. With an approach that primarily considers the art of the possible rather than the automation of the as-is, clients and employees have significantly better experiences.


Business case development


Great ideas need to come to life in a business case, which follows a robust approach to development and a holistic approach to the interrogation of the numbers. All too often business cases overstate the potential and inevitably fall short on delivery. Our rigorous approach to validating the key assumptions, with a superimposed macro environment, lead to more plausible results, thus enabling executives to make informed decisions.


Greenfields start-up


Setting up a business on the back of an idea is no small undertaking. Our experience with the regulatory environment, the roles of the different stakeholders, vendor selection and vetting, the role in the end to end value chain of the business, distribution dynamics and the identification of key competencies, will ensure a smoother glide path to launch. The robust approach to problem solving ensures a responsible and effective solutioning to hurdles that emerge even while a project is in flight.


Regulatory compliance


The regulatory environment is in perpetual change, on the one hand catching up with international best practice and on the other trying to ensure fair outcomes for society. Regardless of the drivers, we can assist you in building an effective environment to tackle regulatory risk, not only by considering possible future scenarios but by building a robust framework for monitoring regulatory compliance, as well as remediation when things may go wrong, including the escalation processes and engagement with the regulator, to ensure a collaborative outcome that achieves the desired effect.

Every business is a service business.
