Progressive was chosen for creating an infrastructure that enables it to more easily expand the products and services it offers to customers.
“We want our customers to have access to a wide range of products and services, including ones we may not develop ourselves,” said Ray Voelker, Progressive’s chief information officer. “Other companies are in similar positions. Progressive IT created a repeatable and efficient way to integrate our systems with those of other companies, so that we can offer their products to our customers, or vice versa.
