Oracle Consulting & Support for Insurance Systems
Performance, Continuity, and Risk Control for Mission-Critical Insurance Systems
Insurance operations rarely fail loudly. They degrade quietly, until the consequences are impossible to ignore.
Claims take longer to process.
Month-end and quarter-end reports run later every cycle.
Batch jobs creep into business hours.
Audit preparation becomes more stressful than it should be.
CAT events expose performance ceilings you hoped you wouldn’t hit.
And over time, the Oracle systems your insurance business depends on stop feeling dependable.
Symmetry Resource Group helps insurance organizations stabilize, protect, and optimize Oracle environments that power claims processing, policy administration, underwriting, finance, and statutory reporting, without locking you into rigid contracts, offshore risk, or unnecessary additional full-time hires.
We operate as a performance and continuity partner, not a generic Oracle vendor.

Oracle Is Insurance Infrastructure. Treat It AS SUCH.
If your organization runs on Oracle, uptime is not an IT metric. It is a business requirement.
When Oracle slows down or fails:
Claims processing stalls, increasing cycle times and customer friction
Policy servicing backlogs grow, especially during renewals or endorsements
Finance and statutory reporting feel the impact immediately
Audit trails become harder to defend under regulatory review
IT is forced into reactive mode instead of strategic planning
This pressure compounds during CAT surge events, when claim volumes spike and regulators, executives, and customers are all watching closely.
Most insurance organizations do not suffer from “broken” Oracle systems. They suffer from accumulated technical debt, thin coverage, and reactive support models that were never designed for long-term stability under regulatory scrutiny.
Symmetry exists to close that gap.
Who We Support Inside Insurance Organizations
We work with insurance IT teams that:
Cannot justify another full-time Oracle hire, but cannot afford downtime
Are running aging Oracle environments with real compliance exposure
Are tired of offshore ticket queues, hand-offs, and delayed accountability
Need predictable performance without unpredictable costs
Carry responsibility for claims timeliness, financial close, and data quality feeding regulatory and statutory reporting
We understand the interconnected reality of insurance ecosystems, claims, policy administration, billing, finance, data warehouses, and reporting platforms do not fail in isolation.
A Different Model Than Traditional Oracle Consulting
Most consulting firms sell projects. Most MSPs sell tickets.
Neither model works well for insurance systems that must remain stable, auditable, and predictable year-after-year, not just at go-live.
Symmetry provides insurance-aligned Oracle consulting and support models designed to reduce risk, preserve continuity, and keep systems healthy long before outages occur.
Our Core Engagement Models
24/7 Oracle Performance Assurance
Proactive monitoring, AWR-based health checks, alerting, and expert response designed to detect performance degradation before it disrupts claims, policy, or finance workflows.
Includes regular validation of backups, disaster recovery readiness, and alignment to RTO/RPO expectations common in regulated insurance environments.
Flexible Time & Skillset Equivalent (FTSE)
A near-full-time Oracle resource model without the cost, people risk, or single-point-of-failure of a direct hire.
Scale hours and expertise up or down as priorities shift, without losing institutional knowledge.
Targeted Project & Optimization Work
Focused support for upgrades, performance remediation, compliance alignment, DR validation, automation, or modernization.
Delivered without dragging your internal team into firefighting mode.
Team Augmentation & Backfill
Senior Oracle engineers who integrate cleanly with your team to cover vacations, transitions, CAT-related workload spikes, or peak reporting cycles without disruption.
Every model is right-sized, transparent, and aligned to how insurance organizations actually operate.
Why Insurance Teams Choose Symmetry
Real-Time Collaboration. Nearshore, Not Offshore.
Our delivery model is built around U.S.-aligned time zones with senior Oracle engineers based in North America and nearshore locations.
This supports real-time collaboration, disciplined change control, and clear auditability, not overnight tickets and fragmented accountability.
Performance First. Always.
We do not wait for outages to tell us something is wrong.
We focus on the signals that quietly determine long-term stability:
AWR and workload analysis
Patch and version posture
Capacity alignment
Licensing exposure
DR and backup validation
These are the factors that determine whether systems hold up under CAT events, audits, and growth.
Compliance Without Panic
Insurance environments live under constant regulatory and audit pressure, from financial exams to market-conduct reviews.
We help reduce Oracle-related exposure tied to:
Unsupported versions
Misaligned licensing
Untested backups and DR procedures
Incomplete documentation and runbooks
When Oracle performance affects claims timeliness, financial close, or data quality feeding statutory reports, the operational risk quickly becomes regulatory risk. We help prevent that escalation.
Continuity Over Heroics
We do not rely on a single “Oracle hero.”
Knowledge is shared across a team, reducing people risk and ensuring continuity even as staff changes or priorities shift.
Custom Development & Strategic Support for Insurance Systems
Beyond core Oracle administration, Symmetry supports insurance organizations with:
Custom development for agent and producer portals
Reporting automation and bordereaux feeds for reinsurers
Third-party data integrations, including credit, telematics, and geospatial sources
Oracle Database Appliance (ODA) optimization and lifecycle management
Architecture and capacity planning aligned to real insurance workloads
We match the right expertise to the problem, not whoever happens to be available.
What Working With Symmetry Actually Feels Like
Fewer surprises
Faster issue resolution
Clear documentation and reporting
Predictable costs
A calmer IT organization
As one insurance leader put it:
“Symmetry stepped in to save the day, again. The communication was great, the planning superb, and the delivery was smooth and efficient.”
