Project Summary

Decerto developed a custom group-insurance sales platform for Nationale Nederlanden, implementing the product from scratch using Java, React and Hyperion. They worked in Scrum with client developers embedded for knowledge transfer and were responsible for requirements specification, sales-process design, UX, implementation, testing, and documentation. The platform became widely configurable and is used daily by the sales force, replacing offline calculators with a modern online system. The client praised Decerto's systematic approach, flexibility, and dedication.

Project Solution

Decerto was selected via an RFP and delivered the platform using Scrum, building the software from scratch while embedding the client's programmers to facilitate knowledge transfer. The vendor handled business requirements specification, designed an effective group-sales process, implemented coding with modern UX, conducted testing, and produced documentation. The client's team was responsible for integration with core systems while Decerto focused on product configuration and underwriting capabilities.

Project Outcome

Software became the most open-for-configuration Group Sales platform in the Polish market
Sales force adopted the system after improvements and now uses it daily
Replaced difficult-to-maintain offline calculators with a modern online system as the main tool for group insurances
Agile approach promoted timely delivery and helped meet time and cost goals
