Supply Chain - Numerous Third Parties / Multiple Touch Points
Creating the right balance – administration and indemnity costs • Indemnity costs • settlement amounts • subrogation, salvage and recoveries • Administration costs • handling costs – management, negotiators, clerical • audit, inspection and loss adjusting fees Supply Chain Costs Managing the supply chain effectively is essential to creating the right balance
Supply Chain – Challenges and Issues • Outsourcing (delegated authority, third party administrators, on-shore, offshore etc) leads to increased hand-offs and potentially reduces the customer experience • Referral fees for credit hire, bodily injury claims, repair and replace networks • Distributors (Brokers and Intermediaries) are often the first point of contact before hand-off to the Insurer • Procurement centric models can reduce costs at points in the supply chain but is the value provided and customer service optimised? • Third parties promoting making injury claims and potential litigation
Supply Chain – Potential Solutions • Greater collaboration between parties to change outcomes within the supply chain – reduce cycle times and costs, improve service • On-line claims enquiry and tracking for the claimant • Self service claims - on-line tools for the claimant to manage their claim • On-line delivery of goods and services– using eBay, Amazon, PayPal, for example • Automation of processes between suppliers to reduce hand-offs and opportunities for inconsistency and mistakes Is there an opportunity to do what Apple did to the music industry – a game changing approach?
