Multi-media viewpoint outlines key forces shaping the industry, the imperative to build for speed, and the pathway to get there.
BOSTON, May 16, 2017 – Insurance industry core systems provider Duck Creek Technologies recently released “The Future Playbook,” the company’s view of the most pressing factors impacting property and casualty insurers today, and the opportunities and threats these factors present. The guide is accompanied by an industry survey titled “The Future Diagnostic,” designed to help insurers determine:
- How future-ready their organization is
- How well they can deliver on speed
- What imperatives they should focus on
- How they stack up against their peers
The “Future Diagnostic” will remain open until August 1, 2017.
Originally presented as a 46-page booklet to attendees of FORMATION17, Duck Creek’s recent user conference, “The Future Playbook” now is available online. It is intended to inform insurers’ discussions—both internally and with technology partners—on such topics as:
- Emerging technologies
- Changing social, demographic and regulatory trends
- The evolution of risk and complexity
- Customers’ and agents’ increasingly sophisticated expectations for user experiences
“It’s a truly extraordinary time for this industry,” said Michael A. Jackowski, chief executive officer for Duck Creek Technologies. “Magnified complexity and more pressure than ever on speed to market and customer experience can make insurers feel uncertain—even overwhelmed. Having worked with hundreds of P&C companies over the years has given Duck Creek a unique perspective on the industry and problem solving for it. This playbook is the first in a series of perspectives we will be publishing to help carriers find an actionable pathway to sustained success.”
Organized around “tailwinds,” “headwinds,” and “wildcards,” “The Future Playbook” also offers case studies and an examination of imperatives for product, sales, services, and data that drive both top-line growth and bottom-line savings.
“We’re here to help carriers find the signal through the noise,” said Scott Fitzgerald, chief marketing officer for Duck Creek Technologies. “We will be covering the topics we believe will have the greatest impact on the future of this industry, and will filter out the shiny objects that are more bluster than bite. Most importantly, we’ll make sense of what all this means for your business, your people, and your platforms.”
