Insurance companies, financial services and accounting firms alike can experience growth, but not all will have the ability to scale. What’s the difference? Growth is defined by increasing in size such as with revenue and resources. Scale is defined by an increase in revenue at a faster rate than costs.
If your insurance company, financial services, or accounting firm is growing in APAC, you are adding revenue at a similar rate that you are adding resources. Adding more staff for example increases operating costs and decreases profits, at least in the short term. If you are a C-level executive of an established business or a senior manager of a department with double-digit growth KPI’s, then the moment scaling occurs is when you discover and execute a way to increase your revenue and increase your profit margins at the same time. There are a few techniques, but enabling efficiency with your existing structure is often the fastest route.
At a mid-market and enterprise level, taking on the task of scaling may appear daunting. Particularly as the amount of financial data to process becomes complex with a myriad of client interactions being processed and serviced amongst several growing teams within the business. The more the organisation grows, the more financial information and formal documentation appear and keeping track of where expanding data sets go usually requires multiple systems. In a growth environment, insurance companies, financial services and accountants will often reach thresholds where operational efficiencies stagnate due to the volume of financial information being exchanged. These occur across a growing number of team resources and digital data platforms. API’s to connect the platforms often take time and more resources to execute and configure.
bluesheets.io effortlessly address scalability for insurance companies, financial services and accounting firms through three critical data exchange avenues.
Whilst your organisation may already have digital platforms to collect client information, in a growth environment, unique insurance claims, bespoke financial services, and non-standard accounting documents move from occurring once in a while to being part of daily life. Often these tasks will appear insignificant for a while and thereby not require official digitisation. When a business experiences rapid growth, it becomes difficult to keep up with the increased workload connected to these manual processes, without it having a negative impact on how your team operate.

A significant point of difference is that bluesheets.io has the ability to do this in hundreds of different languages around the world utilising Natural Language Processing (NLP) technology, even if the data is eventually feeding into the same system.
