Key Findings & Highlights:
P&C BPS is managed in Conduent's Commercial Industries (CI) operating group, which is home to horizontal (omni-channel communications and HR services) as well as vertical (industry services) capabilities. Industry services such as P&C BPS are organized around both technology solutions (and platforms) and outsourcing services in finance and accounting, transaction processing, learning, and legal and payment integrity services (among others).
Conduent currently serves four of the top five P&C third-party administrators (TPAs) and 7 of the top 15 P&C carriers. Its P&C BPS-related offerings are strongest in:
- Workers' compensation (WC) claims processing
- Personal lines omni-channel customer communications.
NelsonHall estimates that personnel serving P&C clients has dropped in the last two years by 15% to 1,500 (with half handling WC claims). Conduent's 2017-2018 transformation plan implemented what the company termed a Center of Excellence operating model. P&C delivery personnel have been shifted in terms of their locations and in terms of the business units they support, with delivery personnel being centralized, or reassigned to work-from-home arrangements, as appropriate.
Conduent maintains a significant P&C client footprint in the U.S., where it currently serves 4 of the top 5 P&C TPAs and 7 of the top 15 P&C carriers. Almost half of its P&C BPS business is generated in support of TPAs. Large carriers generate much of the remainder of its business.
