Delivering Critical Insights Into Back Office Productivity

Difficult tasks sometimes take longer than expected, or interruptions leave associates idle for precious minutes. Minor distractions and delays can quickly accumulate—across the team and over the course of the shift—taking a serious bite out of productivity. When supervisors have poor visibility into the workflow of their teams, problems grow and persist. Ultimately, the business and its customers pay the price.

One of the largest health and wellness companies in the United States strives to deliver top-notch preventive health care, emphasizing a proactive approach to wellness and a strong focus on quality patient care.

Challenge

For years, the organization’s pharmacy and claims teams used a traditional desktop analytics tool for day-to-day back office operations. But accumulated pockets of idle time among associates created a chronic drag on teamwide productivity. Due to the limits of the technology in use, supervisors were unable to effectively monitor time spent in unauthorized activity across the associates team.

The company needed an alternative solution for identifying productivity bottlenecks and driving productivity improvements across the entire operation.

Solution

The company turned to Intradiem’s Back Office Automation. Intradiem delivers critical insights into back office productivity, creating a common thread of efficiency and productivity and providing robust support for the entire back office team throughout the workday.

The 250-person team began using the Intradiem solution, which monitors and aggregates data from internal systems to provide managers with a constant flow of insights across the entire team. Armed with those insights, managers were able to identify associates in need of assistance or additional coaching or training to boost performance.

Results

In an initial nine-month period the Intradiem solution raised productivity by 18.4%. Idle time per associate declined by more than 14 hours a month, and the organization realized a 15.4X investment return.

Intradiem alerts associates with custom-crafted prompts to help get them back on track toward resolving customer issues. The organization also uses the data generated to improve the quality of reporting, helping managers identify areas that need improvement and coaching associates into more productive behavior. Intradiem contributes positive results for all stakeholders: faster issue resolution for customers, stronger support for employees, and greater efficiency for operations.
