The Challenge

Is there such thing as too much business growth? Yes—if it outstrips your ability to handle it.

Our client, an independent insurance brokerage firm ranked among the top 20 nationwide, was experiencing the downside of rapid growth: fragmented data systems, rising costs, and lengthy financial reporting cycles.

The challenge? This organization was on a rocket ship of growth and innovation. The firm collaborates with over 250 regional and national carriers, and they also provide in-house risk management and benefit plan admin services. That’s a lot of data…and a lot of responsibility to govern and secure it.

They needed a modern data solution. Their legacy on-prem data infrastructure couldn’t scale fast enough to support evolving business needs, compliance requirements, and real-time performance tracking. They partnered with Launch to create a top-notch data and analytics platform that would scale with them as the business grew.

In just two weeks, Launch transformed 12 days of financial reporting into 1—while cutting costs in half.

The Solution

Launch's Data & AI Studio conducted a deep discovery process to assess the client’s business goals, systems, and growth plans. We recommended a Snowflake-based solution for its speed, simplicity, and security. The platform was quickly stood up and configured to support ingestion from multiple SaaS systems. Launch built a flexible, cloud-native data and analytics platform optimized for scale, self-service, and secure data sharing across teams and partners.

The Results

The implementation was fast and impactful. In just two weeks, Launch:

  • Built and deployed a Snowflake-based data platform
  • Integrated 8+ SaaS systems into a unified analytics environment
  • Automated core financial reporting processes
  • Reduced reporting time from 12 days to 1
  • Cut operational costs by 50% through cloud migration
  • Enabled cross-platform visibility into clients, sales, and performance metrics
  • Created a scalable data foundation to support ongoing business growth

With a right-sized, cloud-based analytics platform in place, the client moved from overwhelmed to overachieving—ready to scale, innovate, and lead with data.
