£Saving, £Cost Avoidance & Customer Experience Impact 15
Case Study: Injury Claims The Problem Statement: Reducing expenses in the context of shrinking Motor book • Injury Claims was traditionally a non-capacity planned area, with a focus on indemnity performance rather than operational efficiency – resource plans were flat or increased to drive more Indemnity savings • With the reducing Motor portfolio putting pressure on M&I to reduce expense base, there was a clear need to bring operational efficiency into equal focus • This was exacerbated by the profile of Injury claims - long tail of up to 2 years means that FTE has not reduced in line with GWP • In light of this context, Resource Planning partnered with Injury Claims in 2014 to baseline & deliver operational efficiency improvements
Case Study: Injury Claims Our Approach: We leveraged our expertise to complete a full review of operational performance & capacity • Analysed actual demand • Conducted AHT performance review • Conducted full review of shrinkage & utilisation of resource • Partnered with the business to remodelling Injury claims run off The Impact: Resource Planning approach helped deliver c. 30% FTE reductions from 2014 to present day
• Significant improvements in modelling of Injury claims run off and of demand • This translated into tangible results with c30% FTE reduction • The crucial enabler to this was influencing stakeholders around the opportunity to reduce headcount, which was never believed until this point. • A sustainable partnership model is now in place, which enables the leadership team to pro-actively plan FTE reductions, e.g. with further opportunities to refine modelling reviewed at Monthly Capacity meetings
Trajectory of FTE reductions Prior to resource planning support
Improved accuracy of customer demand forecast enables leadership team to pro-actively Plan reduction of FTE
So far this year we’ve delivered £4.9m of savings

Considerations
Q1 How do you demonstrate value to business stakeholders & how do/could we measure and define this?
Q2 How do you identify new opportunities for planning that offer maximum impact and leverage for the business & share examples of these success stories or pitfalls within the group?
