Simplification of broker software
Project duration: 2 years, 2 months
Brief description
Redesign of existing broker software for creating quotations. The software is to be made more efficient and easier by means of simpler screens and a new workflow for the application. Additionally, the software is to be implemented so that it can run without installation from a USB stick.
Supplement
For the software to run without installation, the existing COM components, which form the database interface, among other functions, are converted to the "Isolated Applications and Side-by-side-Assemblies" operating system mechanism. This means that all the information located in the registry for a COM InprocServer is now stored in the manifest files. In addition to this, C# dialogs are adjusted and recreated. Furthermore, a new component is developed in managed C++ for importing and exporting data to and from a database.
Subject description
In order to arrive at a result quicker when creating quotations, the broker software is fundamentally redesigned. The main focus here is on simple and fast calculation. This starts with the installation, which requires the greatest amount of support. The software is made available to the brokers on a USB stick. The broker software can be used as soon as the USB stick is connected to a PC. The software can also be copied and ported easily. The quotation preparation process is also optimized to speed up the calculation. Instead of having to enter the customer data first, the broker can receive a result with just a few insurance-specific pieces of data. No other data is required until later on in the quotation preparation process.
