Toronto, ON (Mar. 13, 2014) – The Guarantee Company of North America has once again partnered with Brovada Technologies to launch a new eDocs Solution for personal lines brokers. Designed to save brokers time by allowing for easy download of policy documents to a broker management system (BMS), eDocs will enable streamlined workflows and increase ease of doing business with The Guarantee.
Fully certified by the Centre for Study of Insurance Operations (CSIO), the eDocs solution gives brokers an automatic download of electronic policy documents from The Guarantee’s Policy Administration System. eDocs is available for use with most supported broker management systems (BMS) including TAM (Applied system), SigXP (Keal Technology), The Broker Workstation (CSSI) and Powerbroker (Zycomp Systems).
“The Guarantee is proud to provide this solution to our personal lines brokers and be among the first carriers to get CSIO certification for supported broker management systems,” said Alister Campbell, CEO, The Guarantee. “It’s our mission to continuously find ways to increase efficiency and improve our broker partners’ experience.”
“Working through the eDocs certification process with both The Guarantee and CSIO has been tremendously valuable. The commitment and drive to become not just ‘standards-based’ but ‘standards-certified’ is a demonstration of the dedication to excellence and discipline that we as an industry need to strive for,” said Charles Samolczyk, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Brovada.
“We applaud The Guarantee on being one of the first carriers to receive CSIO Certification for eDocs,” said Catherine Smola, President & CEO of CSIO. “The Guarantee’s participation in the certification process signifies its continued commitment to delivering efficient and seamless workflows for the broker channel, making it easy to do business with them.”
eDocs is available to personal lines brokers in Ontario, and will be available in other provinces later this year.
