Challenges.
Breaking Barriers in Underwriting
- Manual Document Review
- The client’s underwriting process involved reviewing large, disorganized stacks of documents. This not only slowed down operations but also increased the chances of human error.
- Inefficiencies in Data Handling
- Employees struggled to organize and extract critical data from case files, leading to delays in decision-making.
- High Rejection Rates
- Nearly 40% of cases were being rejected due to outdated processes that lacked precision and scalability.
