Other pieces had to be in place: •  Document Management System (ImageRight) •  New Policy Admin System (FIMMAS) •  New state of the art phone system •  New Members On Line Website •  New (PCI Compliant) on line payment system •  New Branding – website •  New Business Continuity Plan in place •  Secure Environment

    2020: Competing for a future “As customer expectations become more exacting and the supply chain becomes more fragmented, your business will need to develop new routes to market or risk being cut out of the loop.” Deloitte: 2013 Life Insurance and Annuity Industry Outlook ”Carriers looking to overcome challenges reaching the middle market might consider developing direct-to-consumer options to bolster their agency distribution system.” Accenture: The Digital Insurer “The difference between the front-runners and those who are struggling to keep up is, in many cases, the engine that drives them. Old, outdated legacy platforms are costly to maintain and prevent insurers from competing effectively against those with modern, flexible systems. “ Capgemini: Trends in Insurance Channels “To remain competitive in the marketplace, insurers need to redesign their business processes to speed up the automation process and also develop predictive analytics and automated underwriting solutions. “
