Replacing calls, emails and spreadsheets with one claims platform

What was on the table
The previous operational model depended on calls, email, instant messaging, verbal approvals and manually exchanged documents. This created limited claim visibility, delayed purchase orders, fragmented document storage, reconciliation difficulties and weak auditability.
How we approached it
AO designed and delivered a secure web-based claims portal covering the full claim lifecycle, from capture through approval, purchase order, invoicing and reporting.

What this engagement drew on
Customer identity withheld under confidentiality agreement. AO publishes work only in a form agreed with its clients. Where a customer has not granted naming rights, the engagement is described by industry, scale and outcome — never by identity, logo or screenshot.
