The move equips ACG with the tools to streamline operations, simplify its IT infrastructure, and bolster application capabilities and server management, ultimately enhancing efficiency and productivity.
Faced with looming end-of-service deadlines and mounting costs, ACG sought a partner with robust expertise in business and technology transformations to navigate its transition to Google Cloud.
Capgemini emerged as the preferred choice due to its industry-leading capabilities in supporting clients through similar journeys. Collaborating closely with ACG, Capgemini orchestrated a seamless migration encompassing both production and non-production server infrastructure. The result is a more stable, secure, and future-proof technology stack, providing ACG with the foundation to scale for future digital transformation endeavors.
The initiative will deliver tangible benefits for ACG, ensuring business continuity while unlocking substantial long-term cost savings estimated at approximately $500,000 per year. By consolidating its data centers and product suite onto Google Cloud’s infrastructure, ACG stands to optimise its operations and pave the way for sustained growth and innovation in the dynamic insurance landscape.
“This was a critical and time-sensitive initiative for ACG that will yield significant value in terms of cost savings, system scalability, and resilience and was a key component of our broader transformation journey. The partnership and collaboration from Capgemini and Google Cloud was critical in executing this highly complex initiative seamlessly with little to no impact on our business operations. Kudos to the teams on this success that serves as a testament to our deep longstanding partnership,” said Madhu Nandagiri, Vice President Infrastructure and Digital IT, Auto Club Group.
“Our collaboration with ACG to deliver this successful migration was always grounded in building a strong foundation for a digital and sustainable future. We put the right people and skills in place for the team to manage this transition, without compromising on security, and to mitigate any service disruption. We are excited to help them realize quantifiable business value through this transformation journey and discover new opportunities together to drive further value creation,” said Shane Cassidy, Head of the Global Insurance Business Unit at Capgemini.
Nigel Walsh, Managing Director, Insurance, Google Cloud, added: “Embracing the cloud is not just about technology; it’s about reimagining the role of IT in the digital age by shifting from managing infrastructure to driving strategic innovation. Our longstanding partnership with ACG and Capgemini to modernize ACG’s infrastructure and transform its insurance processing will not only help reduce cost but ultimately improve employee and member experiences. We look forward to working together to harness the power of cloud and AI to enable transformational change and drive business value,”
