HiQ SIGNS NEW FRAMEWORK AGREEMENT WITH FÖRSÄKRINGSKASSAN
HiQ has signed a new framework agreement with Försäkringskassan (the Swedish social insurance agency) to test the usability of the agency’s Self-Service functions. HiQ is helping to make it easier for people to use Försäkringskassan’s website.
When developing new services and information structures and working on interaction design, Försäkringskassan needs to conduct advanced usability tests. The agency has enlisted the services of HiQ to conduct these tests. The framework agreement will be in effect for one year with an option to extend.
“HiQ is using its expertise in usability testing to help modernise and simplify Försäkringskassan’s website,” says Gunilla Dyrhage, Division Manager at Försäkringskassan.
“We use our IT expertise to simplify people’s lives. We hold a strong position with government agencies and departments and we are proud and delighted to be working with Försäkringskassan,” says Lars Stugemo, President and CEO of HiQ.
Försäkringskassan is one of Sweden’s largest government agencies with around 12,500 employees. The agency is responsible for administration of the social insurance benefits and allowances that are part of the social insurance system in Sweden. Social insurance is society’s economic security system and it includes benefits that cover the various needs that arise through a person’s life. The Self-Service department is responsible for the agency’s website and e-services.
