Salesforce Account Team Point of View

Audience: Salesforce Financial Services Account Team

H.W. Kaufman Group London is actively consolidating its international brands and executing a digital transformation agenda. The acquisition integration challenge creates an urgent need for a unified platform — Salesforce FSC is the answer.

1Account Overview

H.W. Kaufman Group is a leading specialty insurance broker with operations across the US, UK, and international markets. The London operations are a critical part of the group's Lloyd's market strategy, with ongoing brand consolidation creating integration complexity.

2The Strategic Paradox

H.W. Kaufman's acquisition-led growth strategy is creating operational complexity that a fragmented technology infrastructure cannot manage. The gap between growth ambition and operational reality is the entry point for Salesforce.

3Why Now

The brand consolidation programme is creating a natural investment window for a unified technology platform. Engage now before the consolidation is complete and the window closes.

4Opportunity Size

A Salesforce FSC deployment at H.W. Kaufman London represents a £1.5M–£3M initial programme with expansion potential across global operations.
