The Brief
In 2022, Outré Creative was contacted by Everest with the goal of replacing their multiple insurance underwriting calculation platforms with a single comprehensive product. To accomplish this, we needed to thoroughly outline the underwriting process from start to finish and engage directly with the stakeholders, third-party developers, and potential users.
Wireframing
The platform needed to execute intricate calculations using a range of APIs from across the platform. It was imperative for us to develop wireframes and showcase the core functionality to the client prior to seeking design approval. Given the multitude of components involved, we took the initiative to establish a robust naming convention which meant we coud quickly reference screens and the processes in them.
Design
Because of the complex functionalities we had to map throughout the product, we needed the ability to iteratively update the designs depending on functionality, which would only be revealed to us after we explored it.
To do this I made sure since inception that each design element could be updated and altered simultaneously throughout the work-files, to do this I created separate library files which housed all of the design elements at different stages: Atoms, Molecules, and Patterns.
Updates to any one of these files would sync with all the others and deliver design updates immediately. In 2023 Everest Re went through a rebrand. Thanks to the library synced designs we were able to quickly turn around an updated look and feel for the expansive Edmund product.
