The ProMetrix application permits you to modify risk characteristics and other variables to develop “what if” scenarios.

Just check off the Risk Improvement Recommendations you want to implement at the specific property and see how much the estimated loss cost will change. The information helps you price coverage more precisely and provide valuable cost-benefit analysis for suggested improvements.
