Case Study: Allianz Ireland achieves streamlined web development and automated B2B services with LANSA

Lansa Web Tool of Choice for Allianz Ireland

Allianz Ireland, a major multi-line insurer within the Allianz Group, needed a reliable, cost-effective web development approach for both B2C and B2B channels. After piloting a three-tier Java/WebSphere architecture that proved costly and slow, Allianz initially adopted LANSA-based solutions as a tactical fix while evaluating long-term options.

Using LANSA (via MDC’s InsureIT) Allianz deployed successful B2C quote & buy sites and a B2B extranet that automated data entry, policy printing and validation, plus an automated MMC underwriting front end integrated with Insure/90. The result: over 50% of the scheme provider’s business runs through the B2B solution, substantial administrative and recruitment savings (including ~€50k/year in hiring costs), improved underwriting productivity and consistency, and LANSA being elevated from a tactical choice to Allianz’s strategic web development tool.
