Everence digital strategy team is very busy this summer with projects aimed at updating digital experiences for staff and members.
The high volume of projects stems from a broader need to move to updated software and servers that will better serve our security and technical needs. This also presents a great opportunity to improve the user experience and design across our portals.
Earlier this year, we completed a large upgrade to our web software, Sitecore, and its server, which set the stage for many of the digital projects for 2023.
Here are the largest upcoming digital projects:
In addition to these larger projects, we have several applications that are being rebuilt on a new platform and are all slated to launch early August:
• Everence Asset Management disbursements: Update to the design of the EAM disbursements app currently in Connection. This will be available in My Everence for Employees. The application will function the same way.
• Donor advised fund distributions: Update to the design of the donor advised fund distributions app currently in Connection. This will be available in My Everence for Employees. The application will function the same way.
• Annuity rates page: Update to the design of annuity rates page in Connection. This will be available in My Everence for Employees. The application will function the same way.
• Everence Asset Management statement lookup: Simplifies how Everence Asset Management clients find statements, giving them one place in My Everence for Individuals or My Everence for Organizations to view their account documents, regardless of if they are a primary or secondary account holder.
Communication plans and training
