Client Context
A prominent wealth management firm launched a CRM modernization program to retire its legacy Portfolio Management Platform (PMP) and adopt Salesforce Financial Services Cloud. The PMP system had supported core workflows such as wealth payments, investments, and financial advisor services. However, the shift to Salesforce was essential for achieving scalability, compliance, and business agility across expanding operations.
The transformation required a carefully planned QA strategy, including functional validation of Salesforce modules, data integrity across multiple migration waves, and phased decommissioning of the legacy system with minimal risk.
Challenges
- Complex legacy-to-modern transition with dual-system operations during migration
- No existing automation infrastructure across PMP and Salesforce
- Highly customized Salesforce modules requiring domain-specific validation
- Regulatory and audit demands necessitating traceability and compliance reporting
- Multiple data migration phases requiring accurate validation of financial and client data
- Cross-functional dependencies between QA, development, data migration, and business teams
