Focus Technologies Announces Major Policy Administration System Upgrade

PR Web

Sarasota, FL (PRWEB) March 07, 2013

Focus Technologies, LLC, the nation's original provider of web-based, software-as-a -service core insurance processing solutions, announced today the release of the latest version of PolicyPort, its industry leading SaaS solution for policy, billing and claims administration for P&C insurance carriers. Developed in conjunction with Focus Technologies' carrier clients, this latest version of PolicyPort offers agents and internal system users new features, including advanced navigation capabilities, as well as upgraded expert underwriting functionality to improve ratios and results.

New capabilities being offered in the latest release of PolicyPort include a more streamlined workflow in the agency online point of sale process, improved configuration capabilities in the underwriting rules engine, enhanced 3rd-party geo-coding data integration and a modern, action-driven user interface for internal users of the policy administration system.

"Too often, today's insurance carriers struggle with balancing 'ease of use' demands from their agency marketing departments with data-intensive demands to improve loss ratios from their underwriting teams," said John Kummer, Senior Vice President of Focus Technologies. "We believe this latest version of PolicyPort strikes the right balance in offering an intuitive and expedited Point of Sale workflow to agents, while also providing carriers the peace of mind that automated underwriting decisions are being made using a robust and predictable data set."

Trae Jones, Vice President of Marketing and Sales for Focus Technologies added, "Innovative insurance carriers are demanding not only that their core insurance systems are web-based, user-friendly and comprehensive, but also that these applications provide users with the appropriate blend of modernity, scalability and flexibility. Our clients have embraced this latest release of PolicyPort as a terrific combination of these attributes and we are excited to see how we can continue to build on this success in the future."
