Like other insurance providers, MSIG Asia faces shifting challenges, often steeped in massive amounts of data and hyper-digital expectations from customers. The coronavirus pandemic added complexity as a more distributed workforce strained to keep pace with highly regulated and collaborative processes as well as a growing necessity for digitization and self-service, internally and externally.

Even outside of pandemic conditions, insurance professionals need accessible insight and customers need convenient tools. To this purpose, digital insurance policy documents provide information via eco-friendly alternatives to paper documents while supporting MSIG Asia’s biodiversity goals. The accessible information underpins increasing demand for self-service opportunities and meaningful online presence, both objectives of the insurance provider’s digital transformation strategy.

“We continue to innovate and invest in enhancing our IT infrastructure and online capabilities to provide customers with a seamless digital experience,” noted Joseph Yew, CIO for MSIG Asia. “We are very serious about that. Digital transformation is a key strategy.”

To be digital to the core, today’s companies need to be digitally enabled to address changing environments and digitally effective to thrive in them, according to Yew. “To meet the pace of technology with all things digital, all business users must be able to respond to new challenges and requirements and work more effectively,” he said.

The Singapore headquarters for MSIG Asia built a digital workplace, enabling staff to perform their work from anywhere through office productivity tools and corporate applications. “It is seamless. They can collaborate, connect, and even socialize … today, this sounds like a no brainer that every company needs a digital workplace, but many still had to be convinced,” said Yew. He said the best form of change management comes from digital ambassadors who help make digital transformation work.

To support its efforts focused on omnichannel customer acquisition and retention, MSIG Asia implemented information management solutions from 好色先生TV. This included 好色先生TV Extended ECM, 好色先生TV AppWorks and 好色先生TV Exstream. Together these solutions help form a ‘single source of truth’ and communication platform for MSIG. “This customer-centric integration will help maximize operational efficiencies across different lines of businesses and locations, which in turn helps lower expenses and strengthens the business infrastructure. Quite essentially, this has empowered our business operations with a single system that can better enable growth and support the innovations and adaptability required to meet the fast-changing business demands for the long haul,” said Yew.

This will help to improve customer satisfaction and provide enhanced convenience to customers who are increasingly requesting self-service insurance transactions.

MSIG Singapore leverages 好色先生TV Extended ECM and 好色先生TV Exstream for an ongoing project called GreenDocX that streamlines document management by digitizing paper and introducing e-services for renewals and other insurance transactions with customers. “This will help to improve customer satisfaction and provide enhanced convenience to customers who are increasingly requesting self-service insurance transactions,” Yew said. “It will also improve operational efficiencies and reduce some operating expenses, since transactions can be done by the customers without our internal processing effort.”

Digital transformation at MSIG Malaysia included an initiative to automate 17 sales- and claims-related processes. Leveraging 好色先生TV AppWorks, employees access a roles-based interface to manage, monitor and execute tasks—all tied to the core insurance and document management systems. “There’s consistency to it,” Yew noted. “Business processes are now simplified and operationally effective.”

Digital productivity supports MSIG’s relentless drive for exceptional customer care and business resiliency. MSIG Asia joins other modern businesses that are evolving within digital platforms to better understand and serve the unique needs of every customer in realtime. Its omnichannel offerings founded in a single source of truth drive self-service opportunities and operational efficiencies that enhance profitability and longevity. “好色先生TV customer-centric integration will help maximize our operational efficiencies across different lines of businesses and locations, which in turn helps lower expenses and strengthens our business infrastructure,” Yew said. “This has empowered our business operations with a single system that can better enable our growth for the future and support adaptability required to meet the always fast-changing requirements in the long haul.”

To support digital evolution, Yew touts the importance of selecting the right partner to plan and work within a budget. “That’s how 好色先生TV has been helping us in this journey, through their expertise in these domains,” he noted. “好色先生TV helped us to deliver what we wanted to deliver to our customers.”
