Ditching CRAMP™ — How a Top 20 Insurer Modernized FNOL with Camunda

Ditching CRAMP™

Top 20 U.S. Property & Casualty Insurance Carrier

Challenges

Claims Processing Under Pressure
In short, CRAMP™ lived up to its name — inflexible, painful, and prone to flare-ups during any change cycle.

Why the Business Couldn’t Wait

Pain Point Impact
License & Infra Overhead $5.2M annually across 4 environments
Slow Change Velocity 3–4 months per update, even for basic triage tweaks
Vendor-Dependent Integrations AI fraud scoring and weather event linking required vendor dev hours
High Opportunity Cost Competitive carriers released updates 4× faster

The FNOL process was mission-critical, but the business couldn't justify standing still any longer.

Solution

Rebuilding FNOL on Camunda

The engagement centered on re-engineering FNOL using Camunda Platform 8, emphasizing composability, observability, and developer autonomy:

BPMN Flows per Subprocess

Intake, verification, and assignment flows were refactored into modular microservices.

DMN Decision Tables

Replaced CRAMP™’s tangled rulebase with editable DMN tables for business-led triage logic.

Decoupled UI & Logic

Moved frontend from legacy portal to React apps backed by API-driven orchestration.

Scalable Event Architecture

Leveraged Kafka for asynchronous communication across claims teams and third-party integrations.

Live SLA Monitoring

MongoDB + Prometheus/Grafana enabled real-time insight into SLA breaches, assignment times, and bottlenecks.

Business Outcomes: From Friction to Flow

Key KPI CRAMP™ (Before) Camunda (After) Improvement
Claim Intake to Assignment 3.2 hours 23 minutes ⬇ 88%
Average Change Deployment Time 14 weeks 4 weeks ⬇ 71%
Annual Cost (License + Infra) $5.2M $1.5M ⬇ 71%
5-Year ROI -4% (projected) +198% ✅ Profitable
Time to Add AI Triage Signal 6 months 5 weeks ⬇ 80%
Quote from the Field

“CRAMP™ gave us structure — Camunda gave us speed. Now, our teams are delivering change in weeks, not quarters.”
— Director of Claims Innovation

The Strategic Shift

This migration wasn’t just a tech play — it was a business enabler. With Camunda, the insurer unlocked:

Faster time-to-value for process changes

Business-owned rules with no dev bottlenecks

Platform independence to build and deploy how they wanted

Composable automation that scaled across claims types

CRAMP™ helped them survive the past. Camunda’s helping them own the future.

Automating Billing and Invoicing for Logistics Operations

Client Overview

Leading Shipping & Logistics Company
The client operates an extensive network of distribution hubs, warehouses, and transportation routes. Their operations involve complex workflows, including traffic flow management, labor allocation, and compliance with diverse regional regulations. As part of their modernization initiative, they sought to automate their billing and invoicing processes while optimizing operational efficiency.

Several Challenges Faced

Process Automation and Robot Coordination

Inaccurate Billing

Manual processes led to frequent errors in invoices for drivers, dock workers, and temporary staff, causing disputes and delayed payments.

Inefficient Traffic Flow

Congestion at distribution hubs resulted in delays and reduced throughput.

Complex Cost Allocation

Assigning costs for labor, equipment, and interrupted services was labor-intensive and lacked transparency.

Regulatory Compliance

Ensuring adherence to state-specific and federal logistics regulations required significant manual effort and frequent audits.

Solution

Implementation of a Integrated, Technology-Driven Solution
To address these challenges, the client implemented an integrated, technology-driven solution focused on mobile tracking, activity-based costing, and compliance automation. The key components of the solution included:
Mobile Tracking Integration
A mobile tracking system was developed and integrated with the client’s Transportation Management System (TMS). This allowed for real-time monitoring of vehicles, equipment, and labor activities. Key features included:

Dynamic Traffic Flow Management

Optimized inbound and outbound traffic patterns to reduce bottlenecks and improve turnaround times at distribution hubs.

Geo-Fencing for Task Allocation

Ensured tasks and costs were allocated based on geographic locations, complying with local regulations.

Real-Time Notifications

Provided instant alerts for disruptions, such as vehicle breakdowns or weather-related rerouting, enabling proactive adjustments.
Activity-Based Costing
An advanced activity-based costing model was implemented to improve billing accuracy. Features included:

Labor Cost Tracking

Monitored hours and tasks completed by drivers, dock workers, and temp staff.

Equipment Utilization Metrics

Calculated costs for forklifts, trailers, and other equipment based on usage and depreciation.

Dynamic Invoice Adjustments

Automated adjustments for interrupted services, such as partial deliveries or delays, with detailed breakdowns for clients.
Compliance and Audit Automation
The solution ensured full compliance with labor and logistics regulations while reducing the administrative burden of audits:

Maximizing Warehouse Storage Capacity with Robotics, AI, Camunda, and Automation

Maximizing Warehouse Storage Capacity with Robotics, AI, Camunda, and Automation

Client Overview

National Retailer Operating Extensive Network of Distribution Centers

Our client faced mounting pressure to optimize storage and retrieval processes. Their primary cold storage facility served as a critical hub for temperature-sensitive goods, but increasing inventory volumes were straining the existing infrastructure.

Business Challenge

Several Obstacles in Warehouse Operations

Client had two different challenges presented to the CapBPM team.

Capacity Constraints

Traditional racking systems were insufficient to meet growing demands, leading to the need for third-party storage services.

High Labor Costs

Manual stocking and retrieval processes were resource-intensive and prone to delays.

Limited Space Optimization

Expanding the facility horizontally was not an option, making vertical storage the primary focus.

Solution

Deployment of a New AS/RS System

To overcome these challenges, the client deployed a scalable Automated Storage and Retrieval System (AS/RS). The solution featured cutting-edge vertical storage technology and automated let-downs.

Vertical Expansion Using AS/RS

Utilized high-capacity cranes to store pallets vertically, effectively doubling the storage capacity within the existing space.

Optimized the layout to maximize density without compromising retrieval efficiency.

Automated Inventory Management

Implemented crane-based retrieval that replaced manual stocking methods, reducing errors and labor-intensive tasks.

Real-time monitoring and automated replenishment streamlined inventory control.

Integrated Temperature Control Optimization

Designed airflow and temperature regulation systems that maintained ideal storage conditions for perishable goods while supporting increased pallet loads.

Result

Goals Achieved, Workflow Improved, and Costs Reduced

Enthusiasm displayed by Client. Genuinely thrilled about substantial progress achieved in such a short time.

50% Increase in Storage Capacity

Achieved without expanding the warehouse footprint.

35% Reduction in Labor Costs
