NASHUA, N.H., June 5 — ISO Insurance Technology Solutions today announced that Hermitage Insurance Company will implement the ISO Rating Service™ to handle its core rating processes.
In addition to streamlining rate management and reducing rating maintenance and insurance program development costs, the component-based ISO Rating Service will enable Hermitage to develop and integrate a custom-built quoting front-end without having to replace its existing policy management system.
“Rate management capabilities with ISO Rating Service will provide Hermitage with a powerful solution to manage rating for ISO programs and comply with regulatory requirements more efficiently,” said Philip Lambert, vice president of operations at Hermitage Insurance Company. “ISO Rating Service offers best-in-class automated rate management capabilities and analysis tools to ensure product flexibility and speed to market,” added Lambert.
A single rating solution for all business lines allows Hermitage to cost-effectively replace a legacy environment with responsive, customizable rating technology for ISO programs. At the same time, by utilizing XML in conjunction with the company’s IT and integration expertise, Hermitage can streamline its quoting process and remain current with ISO programs.
