faster time-to-decision for BFSI partners via API
The Challenge

Extending credit access to unbanked and underbanked consumers required going beyond traditional bureau data. Many thin-file applicants lacked sufficient financial history to be accurately assessed using conventional credit scoring models.

To address this gap, telco network data presented a powerful alternative signal—offering behavioural insights such as payment consistency, usage patterns, and tenure. However, combining telco data with bureau scores introduced significant challenges:

  • Ensuring data privacy and regulatory compliance

  • Enabling collaboration between telco and financial institutions without exposing raw customer data

  • Building a scalable model that could integrate alternative data into existing credit workflows

  • Delivering faster decisions without compromising risk controls

The client needed a secure, privacy-safe data collaboration framework that could unlock new credit insights while maintaining strict governance standards.

The Solution

ADA designed a phased transformation roadmap—starting from secure data collaboration infrastructure through to production-ready credit scoring models.

The journey began with the implementation of a Snowflake Data Clean Room, enabling telco and BFSI partners to collaborate on anonymised, encrypted datasets without directly sharing personally identifiable information (PII). This privacy-by-design environment ensured regulatory compliance while unlocking high-value alternative data signals.

Next, ADA engineered enriched feature sets by combining bureau scores with telco behavioural attributes, enhancing risk visibility for thin-file applicants. Advanced analytics and machine learning models were developed to improve predictive power, with rigorous validation and bias testing to ensure fairness and accuracy.

Finally, the enhanced credit scoring model was integrated via API into BFSI partner systems, reducing processing times by 40% and enabling near real-time decisioning.

This structured, privacy-safe approach enabled financial institutions to responsibly expand credit access while improving underwriting precision and operational efficiency.

The Challenge

As marketplaces rebounded post-COVID, the client needed to capture renewed demand while rebuilding operational stability. Rapid shifts in consumer behaviour created unpredictable demand patterns, making it difficult to sustain growth without overstocking or running into availability issues.

At the same time, campaign planning became increasingly complex. Coordinating promotions across multiple SKUs, brands, and seasonal events required precise assortment decisions, while fragmented inventory management led to stockouts, delayed fulfilment, and missed sales opportunities.

The client needed a structured marketplace strategy that could balance growth, conversion performance, and inventory efficiency, all while maintaining high service levels across campaigns.

The Solution

ADA implemented an end-to-end marketplace operations framework to improve execution consistency and scalability. We introduced a structured weekly campaign planning cadence aligned with sales targets and key marketplace events, ensuring the right assortment mix and promotional strategy for each campaign window.

Clear assortment guidelines were developed using performance data and demand forecasting, helping prioritize high-converting SKUs and avoid low-impact listings. In parallel, we strengthened inventory planning with tighter demand forecasting and replenishment processes, maintaining a 95% ATP rate to ensure product availability during peak campaign periods.

Finally, monthly business reviews were established to track performance metrics, identify optimisation opportunities, and refine strategies continuously. This disciplined, data-driven approach helped the client scale marketplace performance sustainably while improving conversion rates and operational efficiency.

treatment adherence increased
The Challenge

Headquartered in India, our client is an established chain of eye specialty hospital that operates within a network of 103 centres in India and 15 centres internationally.

However, the chain has been experiencing a significant drop in patient adherence at various stages of treatment, leading to suboptimal treatment outcomes. The client’s objective is to enhance patient adherence throughout the treatment process, including post-procedures, to achieve improved treatment outcomes.

To address this challenge, the client aims to develop a robust patient-targeting module that can effectively remind patients of their appointments with ophthalmologists and other critical checkpoints, thereby promoting and facilitating improved adherence to the treatment plan.

The Solution
1 Patient segmentation

We started by mapping out the end-to-end patient journey to identify key stakeholders and areas of patient dropouts during that journey. Patient segments were created based on the patient’s demographic details, medical history, and segment types. For example, a healthy patient with a generic eye ailment or a patient with a history of complex eye ailments.

2 Defining the line of treatment

We worked with the hospital SMEs to define the line of treatment for various ailments, such as refractive errors, glaucoma, cataract, retinal detachment, macular degeneration, and amblyopia. These involved a range of interventions, including corrective lenses, medication, surgery, or vision therapy, depending on the specific condition. A complete treatment requires long-term adherence.

 

3 Patient targeting

Patient-level targeting was done based on the segment to which the patient belongs, and the ailment assessed by the physician through diagnosis. This was achieved through a series of reminder protocols.
