Focus Solutions Group, a provider of enterprise applications for the financial services market, is launching its new whole office application for financial services distributors – focus:360.
focus:360 – ‘whole office’ application offers organisations an integrated, end to end application that supports the financial advice process through a single technology platform.
By developing a fully integrated single application that supports the full product range of protection, pensions, investment, mortgage and general insurance, organisations can reduce the number of disparate systems needed for the front, mid and back office, enabling a reduction in the associated costs, integrations and resources; enabling increased visibility and productivity within the sales force; and providing intermediaries with a single view of the client.
focus:360 provides the information behind the sale – the most advanced sales process and support tools, as well as a functionally rich back office service – vital for any organisation operating in a competitive market. Functionality including training & competency, risk based monitoring, pipeline tracking and sales performance management information, which is unique to Focus.
In line with market demands, Focus has developed a more ‘product oriented’ approach in focus:360˚, providing organisations with the benefits of a packaged solution with the added flexibility of configuration. Companies can also benefit from a wide range of ‘out of the box’ 3rd party integrations, including Towers Perrin, Assureweb, Trigold, and many others.
Built upon the very latest Microsoft .Net 2 technology, focus:360˚ adopts a modular approach enabling our clients to tailor their applications via the appropriate sales channel.
“focus:360 – whole office solution is pushing the boundaries of sales process automation solutions and is already receiving positive interest within the distributor community. In such a competitive market, differentiation is key to financial services institutions. We believe that focus:360 offers organisations a fully integrated single technology platform that enables the acquisition and servicing of new customers in the most effective and efficient way. I look forward to announcing our first sale of focus:360 in the coming months,” says Dave Upton, financial services product director, Focus Solutions Group plc.
