Global Health organisation
The Challenge
Our client, a leading healthcare organization, had been struggling to scale their legacy case management solution. Proprietary data structures and insufficient functionality prevented them from keeping pace with the rate of change and scale they needed to serve the public. A strategic choice had been made to migrate to Salesforce but the implementation process was at risk of significant delay due to scope create and the uncertainties of migrating undocumented data.
The Approach
The BCG Platinion team established a vision of how client treatment could and should work in the ecosystem, independently of current platform constraints. We then prioritized the feature set to those needed to achieve a working ‘go-live,’ in partnership with clearly identified product owners. To accelerate progress, our team on-boarded and enabled a release train of multidisciplinary teams spanning the client, a systems integrator, the vendor, and core specialists within BCG. Through to delivery, an agile high-speed release cadence with DevOps & CI/CD rapidly promoted features through testing into production. Finally, the migration was achieved: validated data quality from source was integrated effectively into Salesforce.
The Impact
The BCG Platinion team was delighted to ensure sufficient features were complete for a launch inside two months — with full data migration complete in three months. We helped the client successfully put the program back on schedule, and enable superior public outcomes. Additionally, the client’s own technology teams were then empowered to take ownership of the project for ongoing feature development.
Looking Into the Future
Overall this go-live enabled significantly better client outcomes that came loaded with far less risk, and as a result put the client firmly in control of driving business value into the future.

Building App from Scratch for Leading European Asset Manager
A leading Slovenian asset manager turned to BCG Platinion for support, seeking to tap into digital onboarding opportunities by completely re-inventing their mobile app from the ground up. The company’s existing application lacked key digital capabilities such as onboarding, preventing them achieving a winning user experience (UX) and leading the market. The customer expressed an ambition to expand its operations across the Balkans, which would require them to seamlessly facilitate payments and execute key aspects of onboarding like KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti Money Laundering) checks. With the goal of building a tailored, innovative mobile application, a combined team of core BCG and Platinion experts handled both the design and delivery phases end-to-end.
Enabling the e-Mobility Evolution in Energy
In 2021, the EU Commission presented the Fit for 55 proposal. This ambitious, comprehensive set of climate policies has been compiled to ensure that a 55% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions is achieved by 2030. The EU successfully reached agreements on the proposal’s key policies, including the goal that only zero-emission cars will be sold from 2035 onwards. Meeting the 55% GHG reduction target will be a crucial milestone on the journey to achieving Net Zero by 2050, and organisations are eager to maintain momentum. Recognising the challenging nature of these targets, a multinational utility company that offers B2B and public charging services faced a key question. The organisation wanted to understand whether its proprietary B2B charging platform would be able to scale to handle the anticipated increase in B2C charging customers.
Teaming Up For Disaster Mitigation
Everybody is feeling the impact of climate change on the environment – for instance, in the form of dramatic natural disasters in areas that were previously rarely affected. As such, a catastrophic natural disaster in the heart of a Europe has severe consequences, including loss of lives and livelihood. BCG and BCG Platinion were immediately on hand to enhance resilience in a European region hit by the worst catastrophe in its recent history. The team worked with passion and deliberation to develop a sustainable and resilient concept to better deal with similar situations in the future.
