Case Study: Delvag achieves 30% greater content-management efficiency and unified departments with Liferay

Powerful Individual Solutions for Unique Departments

Delvag, the insurance arm of Lufthansa that runs Delvag Versicherungs‑AG and Albatros Versicherungsdienste, needed to upgrade its internal and public portals to the latest Liferay Portal following a security‑related database update. Key challenges included migrating to modern Java/OS stacks, providing multi‑client capabilities for different workforces, and improving department connectivity while avoiding fragmented, isolated solutions.

Working with Liferay partners, Delvag upgraded to the new platform (Java 8 on Red Hat), integrated systems via SOAP services, and implemented site templates with parent/child sites for cross‑client and client‑specific content. The result was a unified, flexible platform using Liferay CMS, document library and collaboration tools that boosted editor efficiency by about 30%, eliminated isolated solutions, streamlined license/provider management, and created a proven foundation for future digital and customer‑experience initiatives.
