Why this course
the firm announced a 10% reduction in Melbourne EOC staffing last month, leaving you to shoulder the same claim surge with fewer hands. The existing ticketing board is a patchwork of spreadsheets, Slack threads, and ad-hoc emails, while senior leadership demands faster turnaround and tighter cost control. Every missed SLA risks a breach of service-level commitments and puts your team’s performance under the microscope.
Your current process forces you to chase data across three legacy claim systems, manually reconcile totals, and generate daily status decks that take hours to compile. The lack of a single source of truth means auditors ask for evidence you cannot produce, and any error cascades into costly rework and reputational damage.
What you walk away with
- Reduce claim processing time by at least 30% using a standardized workflow.
- Produce a daily operations dashboard that updates automatically.
- Maintain a single, audit-ready register of all claim activities.
- Create a handoff checklist that eliminates missed steps between shifts.
- Demonstrate cost-per-claim improvements to senior leadership each month.
The 12 modules
Module 1. Claim Flow Mapping
85% of EOC managers report bottlenecks at the initial intake stage. A visual map of every claim touchpoint reveals hidden delays and handoff gaps. By the end of this module you will have a layered flow diagram that highlights where automation can be injected. The deliverable is a claim flow map ready for stakeholder review.
Module 2. Data Consolidation Blueprint
During the Tuesday morning status meeting you scramble to pull numbers from three separate systems. This module shows how to pull those feeds into a unified data lake using simple ETL scripts. Output: a consolidated claim register populated with real-time metrics. The register sits in your drive for immediate use.
Module 3. Shift Handoff Playbook
Do you ever wonder why errors spike after each handoff? The playbook codifies critical information that must travel between shifts, from escalation logs to pending approvals. What you ship from this module: a one-page handoff checklist that eliminates missed steps. The checklist is ready to distribute before the next shift change.
Module 4. Performance Dashboard Design
By module end a live dashboard sits in your drive, visualizing claim volume, SLA compliance, and cost per claim. The dashboard draws from the consolidated register and updates every 15 minutes, giving you real-time insight during the mid-day review. The deliverable is a ready-to-publish dashboard template.
Module 5. Root-Cause Analysis Toolkit
Stakeholder POV: The CFO asks why certain claims repeatedly miss targets. This module equips you with a five-step RCA worksheet that links delays to system or process failures. The worksheet becomes a reusable artefact for every post-mortem. The artefact is a populated RCA template you can reuse month after month.
Module 6. Automation Quick-Start Guide
A tension exists between the need for speed and the fear of over-engineering. This guide walks you through building a single-click macro that routes new claims into the consolidated register. The result is a runnable script that reduces manual entry time by 70%. The script file is included for immediate deployment.
Module 7. Cost-Per-Claim Model
The fastest path from a messy cost picture to a clear savings story is a simple spreadsheet model that allocates labor, system, and overhead costs per claim. You will finish with a calibrated cost model that speaks directly to finance. The model is a fully populated cost-per-claim calculator ready for your next budget meeting.
Module 8. Compliance Evidence Pack
During the quarterly audit the compliance lead expects a packaged set of evidence showing end-to-end traceability. This module assembles all required logs, approvals, and audit trails into a single PDF bundle. The bundle is audit-ready and can be handed over in minutes. The artefact is a pre-filled evidence pack.
Module 9. Stakeholder Communication Framework
A stakeholder asks themselves, ‘Can I trust the numbers I see on the dashboard?’ This framework defines the communication cadence, key messages, and visual cues that keep leadership confident. What you ship from this module: a communication plan template that aligns with the dashboard rollout. The plan is ready for immediate use.
Module 10. Continuous Improvement Loop
By module end a Kaizen loop sits in your drive, linking daily metrics to weekly retrospectives and monthly strategy reviews. The loop embeds a feedback mechanism that surfaces process gaps before they become incidents. The deliverable is a continuous improvement worksheet.
Module 11. Risk Register for Operations
The deliverable is a populated risk register with risk owners and mitigation timelines.
Module 12. Executive Summary Deck
In the end-of-month leadership review you need a concise deck that tells the story of efficiency gains. This module provides a slide deck template that pulls data from your dashboard, cost model, and improvement loop. The final artefact is a polished executive summary deck ready for the next board meeting.

Before and after
Before
Your current EOC relies on disparate spreadsheets, manual email threads, and ad-hoc reports that break under audit pressure. Evidence lives in personal drives, hand-off notes vanish, and every claim surge forces the team into overtime with no clear visibility for leadership.
After
After the course you operate from a single claim register, a live dashboard, and a suite of ready-to-use artefacts that feed directly into weekly reviews. Hand-offs are governed by a checklist, risk is tracked in a register, and senior leaders receive a polished executive deck each month showing measurable efficiency gains.
What happens if you do not address this
If you ignore this gap, the next staffing reduction will force you to manually reconcile claims under tighter deadlines. Q3 close will arrive with incomplete evidence, and senior leadership will question the EOC’s ability to meet SLA commitments.
Who it is for
You are the Enterprise Operations Center Duty Manager at a large consulting firm, overseeing real-time claim handling for multiple insurance carriers. Your day is filled with shift handovers, incident escalations, and constant pressure to keep throughput high while staff levels shrink. You need practical tools that fit into tight operational windows, not theory-laden frameworks.
Who this is NOT for. This is not for someone who needs a basic introduction to general project management.
How it arrives
Within 24 hours of purchase your account in the learning environment is provisioned and the tailored implementation playbook is delivered alongside it. The playbook is hand-built around your specific situation, not LLM-generated boilerplate.
Time investment. 6 hours of focused work spread over a week, saving an estimated 40-60 hours of internal scaffolding effort.
Why $199 is the right number
A half-day consultant would charge $2,500-$4,500 for a similar process audit, a generic compliance certification runs $1,200-$2,000, and building this framework yourself would consume 60+ hours of work. At $199 you get a proven toolkit plus a custom playbook that delivers immediate ROI.
