AA was undertaking a major initiative to migrate all their existing life policies from a third-party vendor's CRM platform to their own Salesforce CRM platform.
As a result, the primary challenge was migrating all policy data, personal accounts and their associated notes & attachments from the legacy CRM platform to the new Org. A further challenge to consider was to ensure that only AA data was migrated and none of the third-party vendor's data.
All relevant data points from individual records needed to be captured, whilst also removing redundant data points. It was critical to establish that only relevant, correct & sufficient information was being retained.
Besides transforming data from each individual source, the client also needed assistance in importing and migrating all 75,000 email and file attachments to their correct corresponding accounts.
As the documentation is potentially sensitive, encrypting files on export was essential, making them only identifiable by an ID. When migrating customer documentation, it is critical to ensure that they are associated with the correct records. In turn, this meant that successful data manipulation was needed to make the connection between customer records and documentation in the target environment, by using only the document ID.
Pexlify conducted an assessment to consolidate and profile each of the data objects and attachments across the CRM's platform. Based on the results of the assessment, Pexlify built a custom ETL process to extract legacy data, enrich it, and transform it to fit standard and custom Salesforce.com objects in the target CRM platform.
By leveraging information held on the records in the source Org, Pexlify were able to highlight and separate the data. We were then able to manipulate and migrate only the relevant data, leaving all other information intact in the source environment.
AA’s new Salesforce environment was configured to facilitate the customer data, allowing for easy access and comparison of records, without the need to filter unnecessary third-party data. This will allow for a more streamlined view of customer information, allowing for greater customer satisfaction due to more efficient internal processes.
To securely migrate sensitive customer data, documentation was encrypted and extracted. By analysing the recently migrated data, it was possible to determine which records in the new CRM related to which encrypted documentation.
To minimise risk, a small sample of documents were randomly selected to be imported into the target CRM. This allowed us to check that the relationship between the records and documentation was created correctly. After a successful test import, the full migration of documentation was actioned. Further checks were actioned in the target database, to ensure documentation was linked correctly.
Throughout the whole process, multiple meetings and discussions with all parties were held. This allowed stakeholders to be fully aware of which data points were migrated, which data points were left as is and which attachments and documentation were migrated. Alongside this, training was provided in the form of walkthroughs, to ensure that the team at AA were aware of how to access the data and were happy with the general feel of the newly implemented system.
As a result, the Client was able to launch their own Sales Cloud CRM platform globally with all their data and attachments migrated, enabling them to resume business as usual immediately.
