Implemented workflow

Move product approval into a usable launch workflow

Product approval did not mean a benefit was ready to sell. Commission structures still moved through manual approvals and loading steps, so I designed a connected workflow for that final stretch of launch.

Technical product management; workflow design and funding case

01

The gap after approval

The product team designed a commission structure, collected approvals from commissions, actuarial and marketing, and then loaded the product into the enrollment platform. This manual process delayed launch after state approval.

02

The work I led

I scheduled working sessions with the business groups to map the process and pain points. I then designed a web-based workflow, notifications, backup approvals and automated loading of an approved commission structure, with a roadmap that leadership could fund.

03

The implemented change

Leadership funded the proposal. The implementation moved commission structures from spreadsheets into versioned templates and connected the approval process to the enrollment and policy platform. This is distinct from earlier BCBS Florida incentive-compensation work.
