Case Study: Financial Organizations

Achieving operational efficiency while maintaining financial compliance is crucial for business success, but without the right tools in place, your team can quickly become bogged down in day to day minutia. IdeaWeavers empowers financial organizations with tailored solutions that simplify portfolio management, compliance processes, and user engagement. By leveraging our CommonThread platform, financial institutions can optimize general ledger operations, streamline forecasting, and enhance overall productivity. Here’s how we’ve helped our clients achieve these goals.

IW - Financial Management Dashboard

1. Portfolio Management and Broker Engagement at Landin Companies

Landin Companies struggled with off-the-shelf portfolio management software that did not meet their specific needs or provide a broker-focused portal for critical information. Our customized solution simplified the management of their workers’ compensation portfolio. 

  • Reports and Dashboards: We implemented a system that allows Landin’s management to access real-time business metrics. This visual approach to data helps leaders make informed decisions quickly without waiting for weekly or monthly reports.
  • Broker Website: We configured a dedicated portal where brokers can access up-to-date workers’ comp news and view their individual plans to ensure they are well-informed and able to manage their clients efficiently.

By integrating these tools, we enabled Landin Companies to improve both internal decision-making and external broker engagement, driving efficiency across their operations.

2. Simplified Compliance Management at Atlantic Union Bank (AUB)

Atlantic Union Bank faced challenges with a customizable software package that was prohibitively costly and time-consuming to implement for their compliance management team trying to ensure all federal and state regulations were met. With CommonThread, they could complete projects quickly and at a lower cost with our solution that streamlines the process of managing auditor requirements:

  • Task Distribution: Our system allows compliance coordinators to assign specific tasks to relevant personnel based on auditor queries. This ensures that responsibilities are clearly defined and tracked creating a trackable standard operating procedure that’s easy to implement.
  • Dashboards and Notifications: These tools provide a clear overview of task progress and ensure deadlines are met, reducing the risk of non-compliance.

This tailored approach helped AUB reduce administrative overhead, ensuring that compliance efforts are both thorough and efficient.

3. Empowering HR Teams with Self-Service Portals at HRWebConnect

HRWebConnect was in search of a simple and secure portal for its clients, many of whom are small businesses. Existing solutions they encountered were either too complicated or too expensive, so we configured CommonThread to solve the problem and reduce the burden on their HR teams:

  • Self-Service Benefits Portal: We created a platform where employees can download their benefits documents, empowering them to find information independently.
  • Company Updates: The portal is easily updated by the HR team, ensuring that employees always have access to the most current information.

This solution not only enhances the employee experience but also allows HR teams to focus on strategic initiatives rather than administrative tasks.

4. Streamlining Tax Credit Tracking at OneBridge Advisors

As a new business with ambitious plans for growth, OneBridge Advisors needed a scalable and customizable software platform that could adapt quickly to their evolving needs. Managing Employment Retention Credits (ERC) and Self-Employed Tax Credits (SETC) applications for their clients required a system that could handle large volumes of data efficiently:

  • Automated Data Integration: Public users complete forms on the OneBridge website, and the data is automatically imported into CommonThread.
  • Notification System: Users and staff receive reminders at key intervals to ensure timely contract completion.
  • Digital Signatures: Simplifying the process of finalizing contracts.
  • Accounting Database Integration: The system updates ERC and SETC application statuses automatically, providing real-time information to all stakeholders.

This comprehensive solution allows OneBridge Advisors to manage tax credits efficiently, improving both internal workflows and client satisfaction.
