Grinnell Mutual Selects Guidewire Core and Digital Products

By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Information Technology Newsweekly -- Grinnell Mutual Reinsurance Company, a provider of property and casualty (P/C) insurance and reinsurance to customers in 15 states, and Guidewire Software, Inc. (NYSE:GWRE), a provider of software products to P/C insurers, announced that Grinnell Mutual has selected Guidewire InsuranceSuite™, Rating Management, Client Data Management, and Business Intelligence for InsuranceSuite as its platform for policy administration, billing, claims management, underwriting, rating, client data management, and analytics. The company has also selected Guidewire Quote and Buy Portal™ for Policyholders, Account Management Portal for Policyholders, and Gateway Portal for Agents to enhance the digital experience of its policyholders and agents. Guidewire PartnerConnect™ Consulting member Cynosure, a boutique global consulting firm specializing in the implementation of Guidewire InsurancePlatform™ products, is leading the implementation.

Grinnell Mutual selected Guidewire Core and Digital products to transform how it does business and enhance its commitment to serving its mutual members, agents and policyholders. The company is entering a new market, and will be implementing all of the products at the same time for its personal lines of business. Following that deployment, Grinnell Mutual will be looking to implement the Guidewire systems in the other states where it currently does business.

"We were looking for a vendor that could provide the comprehensive platform we needed. After an intensive evaluation process, we selected Guidewire because we wanted a fully integrated suite of products to improve operational effectiveness, efficiency, and customer service," said Roby Shay, Grinnell Mutual vice president, Enterprise Solutions, and chief information officer. "Guidewire's vision, P/C industry focus, and product maturity were also attractive to us."

"This is the biggest organizational transformation we have ever sought to achieve, so it was extremely important that our business and technology stakeholders were involved in the decision-making process," Shay continued. "We are confident that Guidewire's systems will enable our employees, agents, and mutual members to focus on their core competency: providing our policyholders with the very best insurance and service we can offer."
