The super-regional property and casualty carrier to replace multiple front-end systems with one comprehensive platform that will support their commercial lines of business
BOSTON, March 29, 2017 – Duck Creek Technologies today announced that SECURA Insurance Companies will transition its legacy-based front-end distribution systems to Duck Creek’s digital engagement solutions. The mutual insurance company will utilize a platform comprised of AgencyPortal®, Turnstile® and AgencyConnect® to enhance engagement with independent agencies and the customers they serve in the 12 states in which the insurer operates.
“Our focus remains on making it easy for agencies and policyholders to do business with us. Transitioning to one platform to manage our distribution channels and interactions with key stakeholders will help us achieve that objective,” said Todd Thiel, vice president – information technology at SECURA. “As the industry continues to evolve, Duck Creek is providing SECURA with a flexible, scalable portal solution that is capable of supporting our current and future needs.”
Once deployed, the new platform will enable SECURA to:
- Engage simply and quickly with their product distribution channels and technology partners
- Reduce operating expenses and maintenance costs
- Improve operational efficiency and the user experience
- Expand portal adoption and increase new business volume
“The marketplace continues to evolve, but the one constant is the customer. No matter who that customer is—a policyholder, agent or third-party technology partner—insurers want to engage each one effectively to ensure a successful interaction,” said Curt Stevenson, chief digital officer at Duck Creek Technologies. “Our solutions focus on providing intuitive, digital experiences between carriers and their customers that facilitate communication and make it easier to conduct business.”
