Salesforce and AI, Managed for Financial Services

Navirum Orbit is a month-to-month managed service that keeps a financial services firm's Salesforce platform, integrations and AI healthy, secure and improving after go-live. It comes in three tiers, Orbit Standard, Flex and Enterprise, starting at $200 per month, and every tier includes a dedicated Account Manager and the Orbit portal.

AI managed services means an outside partner keeps your AI working after launch: deciding where it fits, configuring it, watching cost and security, and helping your team adopt it. For firms on Salesforce, Orbit does this on top of the platform you already run, starting at $200 a month.

Salesforce managed services provide ongoing, structured support for your Salesforce environment after implementation. For financial-services firms, this means more than fixing things when they break: it includes proactive maintenance, release readiness, integration monitoring, compliance oversight, user enablement, and continuous enhancement, delivered by a team that understands the industry’s regulatory and operational complexity. Instead of relying on a single internal resource or a series of one-off consulting projects, managed services give you a dedicated partner with deep platform knowledge and the institutional memory needed to keep your environment operating at its best.

No. Orbit is an enablement program, not simply a support desk. Break-fix support is part of the service, but the greater value comes from continuous improvement: workflow automation, reporting enhancements, data quality, release readiness, integration health, user adoption, and strategic guidance. Orbit handles both what is urgent, such as an issue affecting users, and what is important, including improvements to how Salesforce supports the business day to day. Over time, these cumulative improvements help turn Salesforce from a system that must be maintained into a platform that creates an ongoing competitive advantage. On the AI side, Orbit covers six jobs: AI opportunities, AI pilots, AI in your workflow, AI governance, AI cost control and AI adoption.

A consultant is typically brought in for a defined project, an implementation, a migration, a specific build, and then the engagement ends. An administrator is usually an internal, full-time hire responsible for day-to-day configuration and support. A managed services provider like Orbit sits between the two: ongoing, fractional access to the same range of expertise a full-time admin and consultant would provide, without the cost or hiring risk of either.

Orbit serves a range of clients: firms implementing Salesforce for the first time, existing customers who need ongoing assistance, teams that just finished a project and need support after go-live, small fast-growing firms that need real customization but can't justify a full-time hire, and mid-market or enterprise firms with multi-year, multi-cloud roadmaps.

Orbit delivers value through eight distinct levers: institutional memory, lower cost of ownership, communication efficiency, release readiness, governance, AI and Agentforce enablement, a flexible commercial model, and relationship capital that compounds over time instead of resetting with every new engagement.

Navirum's team holds certifications across Salesforce Sales, Service, Financial Services, Marketing, and Experience Clouds, Data Cloud and AI solutions, Agentforce, OmniStudio, Tableau, and Pardot, plus AWS and DocuSign. That technical range is paired with deep specialization in financial services, particularly wealth management, asset management, and lending.

Test it in a Salesforce sandbox first, with masked or test data and success measures agreed before you start. Orbit runs these pilots in every tier and gives you a clear recommendation on whether to roll out.

Both are billed by usage, so the biggest drivers are how many agent actions run and how much data you process. Orbit explains your pricing model, monitors usage, reviews what drives it and recommends changes that cut waste.

Your firm stays accountable for client outcomes, which is why AI needs the same controls as any other system. Orbit configures permissions and data access, documents what each agent can use, and reviews AI behaviour after every release, so problems are caught early and can be traced.

Train by role, start with the workflows that save the most time, and measure adoption. Orbit tracks adoption inside Salesforce and fixes workflows that people avoid. We treat adoption as an ongoing responsibility rather than a training event that happens once at launch: targeted coaching, watching where advisors route around the system (a strong signal something is misconfigured, not that people are resistant to change), and adjusting configuration to match how the team actually works.

Yes. Orbit helps maintain the operational foundation required to make Agentforce, Data Cloud, and other AI capabilities useful, sustainable, and safe. Most firms are not blocked from adopting AI because they lack ideas; they are blocked by inconsistent data, undocumented automation, fragmented systems, or weak governance. Orbit sets data-layer controls through Salesforce permissions and field-level security, and configures the Einstein Trust Layer for data masking, response screening and audit logging. Our team is Agentforce trained, with hands-on experience across Google Gemini and Claude by Anthropic, so you adopt AI safely and explainably as your Agentforce and Data Cloud capabilities evolve. See what Orbit manages.

Orbit doesn't make a firm compliant; your compliance program does. Orbit keeps the Salesforce side of that program sound: access controls, audit trails, data retention settings, release testing and documented changes, so your compliance team has evidence when an examiner asks. That matters more as AI arrives: only 12% of banking and financial services firms have an enterprise-wide AI strategy (Infosys and HFS Research, 2025). As firms adopt Agentforce, Orbit extends the same discipline to AI governance and regression testing.

It depends on the volume and complexity of your Salesforce requirements. A single in-house administrator can provide valuable internal proximity and respond quickly to straightforward requests. However, one person can also become a single point of failure, have a narrower range of specialist skills, and represent a significant fixed cost. Orbit provides access to a broader team with expertise across Salesforce configuration, development, integrations, compliance, data, security, and strategy. It also provides continuity: when one team member is unavailable, another can continue the work with access to the same context, documentation, and platform history. For many mid-market financial-services firms, Orbit provides more capability per dollar than a single internal hire while reducing operational and knowledge-continuity risk.

Yes. Many clients use Orbit to complement their internal team rather than replace it. Internal resources can retain day-to-day ownership and business alignment, while Orbit provides specialist expertise for complex configurations, integrations, security changes, release assessments, technical escalations, and strategic roadmap delivery. The Orbit portal gives both teams shared visibility into requests, priorities, decisions, and progress so that responsibilities remain clear and nothing falls through the cracks.

This is one of the most common reasons firms come to Orbit. When system knowledge is concentrated in one person, their departure can create immediate operational risk. Important information about configurations, integrations, historical decisions, and undocumented processes may leave with them. Orbit reduces this single-point-of-failure exposure by maintaining a centralized record of configuration history, design decisions, integration context, requests, and operating knowledge. When an internal administrator leaves, Orbit can preserve continuity while the firm recruits a replacement. When the new employee starts, they can also be onboarded more efficiently because the institutional knowledge has already been documented and retained.

Orbit is structured around three service levels designed to match where your firm is today and scale as its requirements grow. Orbit Standard provides foundational managed support, including user management, minor configuration updates, reporting adjustments, data tasks, and technical guidance, with a defined monthly allocation and clear service levels. Orbit Flex provides expanded monthly capacity for firms with more frequent enhancement requirements, evolving priorities, or seasonal peaks in demand. Orbit Enterprise is a tailored, high-touch partnership for firms with multi-cloud environments, complex integrations, proactive security and governance requirements, and a longer-term Salesforce roadmap requiring dedicated strategic support. Every tier includes a dedicated Account Manager, access to the Orbit portal, monthly status reporting, and real-time ticket tracking.

Orbit uses a flexible, month-to-month commercial model without a long-term lock-in. Orbit Standard starts at $200 per month; Flex and Enterprise pricing depends on the selected tier and the number of monthly hours required. For context, a mid-level Salesforce administrator in the US earns a median of about $92,000, or roughly $130,000 a year once benefits are included (SalesforceBen 2026 salary survey; U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics). Orbit provides access to a multidisciplinary team of consultants, architects, and project managers for a fraction of that cost, with the ability to increase capacity during busier periods and reduce it when demand is lower. You pay for the expertise and capacity you need, and your plan can be adjusted with your Account Manager as your requirements change.

Orbit onboarding follows a structured 30-60-90-day process designed to give the Navirum team full context on your environment and give your organization confidence in how the service operates.

• Day 0: You receive access to the Orbit portal and knowledge base, and your first service check-in is scheduled.
• Day 30: We review initial ticket volume, confirm scope expectations, and identify any immediate improvements, quick wins, or training requirements.
• Day 60: We align support activity with your business roadmap and assess whether your current tier reflects the actual level of demand.
• Day 90: We review outcomes, including service-level performance, completed work, budget status, recommended adjustments, and client feedback.

From day one, communication, files, decisions, requests, and platform history are centralized in the Orbit portal so critical information is not lost in email or distributed across disconnected tools.

Orbit support begins at the very start of any engagement, whether that's a new implementation or picking up an existing Salesforce org. Orbit Project Assist covers support during implementation itself. Orbit Post Go-Live begins the moment a project goes live and continues from there, so there's no gap between the project ending and someone actively watching the system.

Yes. For enterprise clients, the Orbit team works flexibly across multiple time zones, including evenings, early mornings, and extended hours, and can staff work over weekends and holidays with proper planning to keep mission-critical projects on track.

It means access to a multidisciplinary team, admins, consultants, business analysts, on a flexible, as-needed basis instead of hiring a single full-time resource or engaging a consultant for each individual project. Orbit's on-demand model includes proactive maintenance, release readiness, integration support, and strategic roadmap input, not just reactive ticket resolution.

Yes. Orbit manages and optimizes the full connected Salesforce ecosystem, not just the core platform, including AppExchange tools like TaskRay, DocuSign, Conga Composer, Box, and OwnBackup.

The Orbit Portal is the central hub for every request, ticket, and piece of project history, replacing the usual scattered mix of email threads and Slack messages. Clients can submit requests, track ticket status in real time, collaborate using text, files, and media, and search an integrated knowledge base, all timestamped and organized in one place.

Salesforce Accelerators are ready-to-deploy solutions built from Navirum's proprietary code, configurations, and best practices gathered across financial services implementations. They're designed to fast-track delivery and drive adoption, helping firms see results in weeks instead of months.

Yes. Orbit's tiers scale from Standard, built for small businesses with straightforward needs, through Flex and Enterprise, which support mid-market and enterprise firms with multi-year, multi-cloud roadmaps and high-availability requirements. The model is the same whether a firm needs a few hours a month or a dedicated, always-on team.

Yes. Orbit regularly supports Salesforce environments originally implemented by other consulting partners. During onboarding, Navirum reviews the current configuration, integrations, documentation, technical debt, unresolved issues, and platform history to build the context required to support and improve the environment effectively. You do not need to have been a Navirum implementation client to benefit from Orbit.

Yes. Advisor onboarding, getting a new hire productive in Salesforce quickly, and client onboarding, configuring the intake and household setup process, are both part of Orbit's ongoing adoption support, not a one-time training event that happens once and is never revisited.

Yes. Orbit supports the broader Salesforce ecosystem, including Financial Services Cloud, Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, and Marketing Cloud. Beyond the core Salesforce platform, Orbit can manage and monitor integrations with custodians, portfolio-management platforms, compliance systems, communication tools, document platforms, and other connected business applications. When an integration problem occurs, Navirum can investigate the issue, coordinate with relevant third-party vendors, and work toward a resolution so that the problem does not become a recurring source of operational disruption.

Salesforce delivers three major platform releases each year, alongside continuous smaller product and security updates. Orbit proactively monitors these releases, evaluates their potential impact on your environment, tests critical workflows, and addresses relevant changes before they affect production users. Managed release testing and rollout is included from Orbit Flex upward. For security-related changes, Orbit can help firms prepare for enforcement deadlines involving areas such as multi-factor authentication, authentication updates, certificate renewals, and email-authentication requirements. Proactive security governance of this kind is included as standard at the Enterprise tier, with reactive security support available at Standard and Flex. For license renewals, Orbit helps review utilization patterns, identify potential waste or unused functionality, and prepare the organization for renewal discussions with better technical and commercial visibility.
