Keal Technology Awarded for Commercial Integration

comXP and Lombard Canada Integration Receives Insurance Canada Technology Award

TORONTO, Ontario, Canada — March 9, 2011 — On Feb. 28 at the 2011 P&C Insurance Technology Conference, Keal Technology, software provider for Canadian brokers, was the recipient of the Insurance Canada Technology Award (ICTA) Best in Class – Broker Integration. The ICTA recognizes the benefits brokers realize by utilizing the integration between Keal’s Commercial Management System (CMS), comXP and Lombard Canada’s Commercial LINCQ®.

According to Insurance-Canada.ca principal Doug Grant, the awards were developed to celebrate organizations that successfully utilize technology to improve their business. “Insurance is a business with many transactions, many of which are complex. Technology, when well implemented, can ease the processing workload and occasionally turn complexity to advantage,” says Grant. “We want to acknowledge organizations that invest in technology tools which support their employees and shareholders, and ultimately benefit the insurance customer. We are pleased to name Keal as a Best in Class solution provider. Keal has demonstrated a commitment to delivering quality solutions to the Canadian P&C broker and insurer community. We are pleased to celebrate their achievements.”

Brokers using Keal’s commercial management system (CMS), comXP have access to the integration with Lombard Canada’s Commercial LINCQ® free of charge. Brokers can download Lombard”s Business Choice®, renewal policy directly into comXP. The integration includes a PDF download of the declaration page directly from LINCQ, brought back to comXP as an attachment to the policy. The integration eliminates duplicate entry allowing brokers to enhance customer service, reduce E&O exposure and grow business. Keal clients can also access their applications on mobile digital devices like Apple iPad™ oriPhone® and Samsung GALAXY Tab. “Being recognized with an ICTA two consecutive years is a tremendous honour. Our strong partnership with Lombard continues to result in positive outcomes for our mutual clients.” said Pat Durepos, President, Keal. “Giving clients the ability to download directly from Lombard LINCQ into comXP greatly streamlines commercial workflows. Accessing Keal applications on handheld devices simply takes that efficiency one step further. We remain 100% committed to strengthening Canadian brokers and receiving an ICTA helps to validate our commitment.”

Peter Silk, Senior Vice President, Business Processes, Lombard Canada had this to say, “Lombard Canada is thrilled to be partnered with Keal in their receipt of the Insurance Canada Technology Award. The advancements we have made with Keal in the realm of downloading of policy data into comXP is a huge win for brokers and insurers alike.”
