Amerisure Modernizes Policy Administration, Underwriting, and Billing Management Capabilities with Guidewire to Increase Business Agility

FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich. & SAN MATEO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Amerisure Insurance (Amerisure), a leading provider of commercial property and casualty insurance solutions for U.S.-based construction, manufacturing and healthcare businesses, and Guidewire (NYSE: GWRE) announced that Amerisure successfully deployed Guidewire PolicyCenter and Guidewire BillingCenter as its new systems for policy administration, underwriting, and billing management. The company implemented the products on Guidewire Cloud simultaneously beginning with its Workers’ Compensation line of business in all of the regions where it operates. Amerisure is currently implementing other lines of business such as commercial auto and loss sensitive (special risk). Guidewire PartnerConnect Consulting Global Premier member PwC was the lead partner on the implementation project.

Amerisure migrated its on-premise installation of Guidewire ClaimCenter onto Guidewire Cloud in 2023. With the implementation of PolicyCenter and BillingCenter on Guidewire Cloud, the company is now a full Guidewire InsuranceSuite customer in production on Guidewire Cloud.

“Thanks to the incredible partnership our team had working with Guidewire and PwC, we were able to go into production on time and on budget, and user feedback has been encouraging. PolicyCenter and BillingCenter are enabling us to modernize our policy administration, underwriting, and billing capabilities to achieve things we wouldn’t have been able to on our previous systems, such as account-level viewing, easy access to detailed policy information by all entities in the organization, and new integrations to streamline processes,” said Amerisure Vice President of Product Management Mark Fowler. “We’re also now able to see the full quote-issue-bind cycle for new policies in real time. Compared to our previous policy and billing systems, the time it took our staff to learn to operate PolicyCenter and BillingCenter decreased substantially. The intuitive platform allowed the team to be up and running in weeks vs months.”

Fowler added, “We’re looking forward to leveraging the best-in-class insurtech solutions that are part of Guidewire Marketplace and Guidewire’s powerful PartnerConnect ecosystem into our workflows to facilitate a simpler and smoother experience for our staff to ultimately benefit our policyholders and agency customers by reducing cycle times and improving their overall experience. And when we complete our line of business migration, we’ll also be able to quickly add new lines to grow our business. Guidewire will be core to our business operations, driving speed and agility, and I’m excited to see where this goes.”

"We are thrilled to announce the successful Cloud implementation of Guidewire PolicyCenter and BillingCenter at Amerisure," said PwC Global Guidewire Practice Lead Imran Ilyas. "By harnessing the power of Guidewire Cloud, Amerisure has gained unparalleled agility across their entire enterprise, enabling them to swiftly adapt to evolving market demands and seamlessly implement new tools and upgrades. This implementation reinforces their commitment to staying at the forefront of the insurance industry."

Guidewire Senior Vice President of Professional Services Michael Mahoney remarked, “We congratulate Amerisure on successfully implementing PolicyCenter and BillingCenter on Guidewire Cloud. We’re delighted that Guidewire is providing the technology foundation to help the company transform its core operations in the cloud and continue its 110-year mission of creating exceptional value for its partners, policyholders, and employees.”

Amerisure also implemented SmartCOMM™ from Smart Communications for customer communications management. Guidewire is a reseller of Smart Communications, a Guidewire PartnerConnect Solution member.
