Are you looking for a way for your agency’s leaders and team members to understand trends within your book of business, employee workload balance and preferred insurers? If so, we have a solution for you. Applied recently launched Epic Dashboards, embedded analytic capabilities within Applied Epic®, for users in the US and Canadian markets. Epic Dashboards gives your agency access to the vast data captured in Applied Epic, organizing it into insightful visualizations tailored to your agency.
“My first big ‘aha!’ moment with Epic Dashboards was when an insurer announced they were exiting the market, and our CEO asked me how this would impact us,” said Sarah Klapperich, Vice President, Client Experience, McClone Insurance, speaking on their participation in an early access program to help refine the design of Epic Dashboards. “Historically, I would have reached out to my IT department and asked them to run a report, but because we had Dashboards, I could pull it up myself and provide an answer within 30 seconds. It was a really big win to access data in real-time on my own.”
Across all stages of the insurance lifecycle, relevant information for a specific job role is presented in an easy-to-understand visual format to help users double-click into what’s happening with their business, teams, and workflows.
“Epic Dashboards is the next important milestone in unlocking data from the foundational agency management system to create simple, visual value so agencies can make smarter decisions across the business that positively impact their sales pipeline, financial performance, and insurer relationships.”Anupam Gupta, Chief Product Officer at Applied Systems
Whether an individual contributor, team leader, operational admin, or agency owner is exploring pertinent customer and operational data, Epic Dashboards delivers a core set of capabilities, including:
Each dashboard is designed to be filtered by various views, including branch, department, profit center, dollars (estimated, annualized, billed), premium, and commission, at the time interval that makes sense for your agency’s business. This makes it easy for users to consume information in the way that best meets the organization’s operational structure.
A high-level landing page summarizes the performance, organizational productivity and other critical business data available and most relevant to a user’s role. It easily drills down into specific customer details or links to other related dashboards within the persona, saving time and clicking to sort through unnecessary data.
Data is exportable into preferred formats like PDF, CSV, or PNG that can also be scheduled to deliver via email on a cadence that makes sense to inform decision-making at the moments that matter.
Alerts can be configured at the individual tile level for conditions such as expiring policies, overdue activities, or book of business goals, notifying users when a potential action needs to be taken instead of having to review a static report every day.
Data quality dashboards provide views into specific data points in the system that are potentially incomplete or have incorrect data, such as invalid employees, policies missing estimated premiums, and active clients with no in-effect policies, to validate key points of data quickly without creating multiple reports.
Asset Builder provides support for creating custom dashboards based on the organization’s unique needs in situations where pre-built dashboards do not answer critical agency-specific questions. It provides flexibility to create visualizations that provide insights into data important to your insurance agency. “Applied’s vision for data analytics is to provide best-in-class data and analytics solutions that help agencies understand what is happening in their business, make data-driven decisions, and create more intelligent and connected workflows to automate next best actions,” said Anupam Gupta, chief product officer, Applied Systems.
