Use case typeCustomer support automationUpdated Jun 13, 2026
NFU Mutual is known for its local, personalized, high quality customer service. To support this at scale, it consolidated member data from disparate systems into a single, centralized source of truth. NFU Mutual uses Dynamics 365 and Copilot for Sales to record customer interactions and provide a 360-degree view of customers, helping staff serve members more efficiently. Copilot for Sales is embedded in Outlook and connected to the CRM, where it summarizes long email threads, highlights questions and action items, drafts responses for agent review, logs emails and meetings, and surfaces customer insights inside Dynamics 365.
