What does an evaluation with FullCircl look like?

We offer several options – a 4-week pilot, 6-week provisional access, 4-week API trial, and an identity solutions trial. In all cases, a FullCircl trial is a well-planned and carefully executed experience to ensure it meets your individual objectives and goals, and is optimised so you can test the integration and gather quantifiable results.

Stage 1 – Pre-Evaluation

During this stage we will establish what you want to achieve along with your success criteria. This typically involves a series of kick-off meetings, including day-in-the-life calls with potential users where we will determine the scope of the trial, the features to be tested, level of stakeholder and user involvement, resources requirements, KPIs, and more.

Stage 2 – Launch Training

This is an interactive face-to-face session with all stakeholders and users. It includes a full demonstration of the platform, and training for all pilot participants to ensure they are comfortable using the functionality within the FullCircl platform.

Stage 3 – The Evaluation

We will implement the evaluation in accordance with the scope agreed, ensuring users are supported to ensure maximum benefit, and stakeholder decision-making is empowered. During the trial we will collect data on usage metrics, performance against goals, and issues encountered. A mid-point evaluation and weekly calls will also help gather qualitative insights into the user experience and any potential areas for improvement.

Stage 4 – Wrap up and Next Steps

Post-evaluation results in the form of user feedback calls and stakeholder reviews, as well as quantitative assessment of outcomes against the pre-defined goals, will assist in the preparation of a comprehensive report and recommendations for a full roll-out.

A proven process to demonstrate value and drive success

We understand that integrating and managing a new platform can come with it's reservations. That's why our proven process will ensure that your team can not only maximise the value of FullCircl during the trial phase, but throughout your relationship with us.

Howden: A best practice pilot story 

In 2024, global insurance group Howden conducted a structured pilot of the FullCircl SmartBroker platform, including our API integration with the Acturis insurance platform.  

The scope of the pilot included the integration of critical company information and compliance screening within Acturis, with the goals of driving efficiencies in client acquisition and onboarding, as well as the delivery of a consistent client experience across its national branch network.

Quantitative results included a potential 34x total return on investment (ROI) including£2.6 million ROI from enhanced data quality, and £2.9m ROI from process efficiency savings. In just three weeks the pilot demonstrated proof of concept and value in terms of a £250,000 uptick in sales capacity via improved and efficient targeting, the identification of £8.1 million of new pipeline opportunities, the surfacing of £584,000 of total potential premium, and £600,000 compliance process efficiency savings.

Meanwhile, qualitative feedback highlighted the instant benefits to users in terms of data enrichment, efficient record creation, and valuable propensity triggers, as well as huge individual and collective time savings – the equivalent of 18 full time employees.

As a result, Howden proceeded to roll-out the integrated package to its 2,000 Acturis users across the group.
