Case Study / Client Onboarding

A connected onboarding workflow delivered for a national advice group.

Client name withheld by agreement. The project connected portal actions, secure access, workflow automation and management visibility over a ten-week delivery.

Before

The problem was coordination across advice, paraplanning and administration.

Manual handoffs created delays and inconsistent onboarding. Clients received disconnected requests and leadership could not see where each application was getting stuck.

What was built

One first release across client, staff and system needs.

Connected client workflow

Guided onboarding gave clients a clear next action and staff a dependable view of progress.

Secure sign-in and roles

Microsoft Entra sign-in and role-based access separated client and staff experiences appropriately.

Automation and reporting

Workflow triggers exposed delays and gave leadership a live view of operational bottlenecks.
