Business Wire

Formed by Alliant Transportation, ASCEND educates industry leaders on emerging risk trends, evolving regulatory changes and operational performance drivers, supporting organizations’ profitability and sustainability

IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Alliant Insurance Services announces the launch of ASCEND (Alliant Safety Coalition for Education, Networking and Development), formed by Alliant Transportation to bring together industry leaders committed to transforming real-world data into practical strategies that enhance safety and fleet performance and lower total cost of risk.

Initial meetings will gather commercial transportation safety, operations and claims professionals to tackle current industry risks and trends, including cargo theft and fraud, litigation and nuclear verdicts, and maintenance scrutiny and operational exposure. Members will collaborate on risk-reduction strategies, policies, standard operating procedures (SOP) and incident review practices, helping organizations strengthen their approach to safety and compliance and improve profitability.

“ASCEND represents a significant step forward in how transportation leaders approach safety and risk, putting collaboration at the forefront of innovation,” said Lisa Paul, Executive Vice President, Alliant Transportation. “This dedicated network of trusted industry professionals provides an invaluable forum for sharing proven risk management strategies for immediate implementation and impact and long-term sustainability.”

ASCEND was designed to foster open dialogue and knowledge sharing, to equip transportation leaders with the tools and insights needed to navigate today’s complex risk environment with confidence and success.
