Automating the FNOL to Improve Customer Satisfaction

Case Study: “Automating the First Notice Of Loss and Improving Customer Satisfaction, Enabled by APIs”

Aviva Canada Inc. and Accident Support Services International Ltd. collaborated to implement a first-in-Canada real-time claims First Notification of Loss (FNOL) integration service for customers reporting their vehicle collisions at Collision Reporting Centre (CRC) locations across Canada. This new service leverages accident, location, policyholder, driver, vehicle, and witness data that is collected and validated by the CRC to start the Aviva’s FNOL process in Guidewire ClaimCenter – automating the creation of a new claim if one does not already exist.

In addition to automating the creation of the claim and the first-party incident, the integration also automatically enrolls the customer in Aviva’s customer notification solution that immediately informs them via email/SMS of their assigned claim number. It also subsequently updates them on their assigned adjuster’s contact information, liability and deductible decisions, rental and repair arrangements, total loss decisions, and more.

Speeding up the intake of new claims and getting customers’ repairs & replacements moving faster are key to Aviva’s customer-centric claims strategy.

Jonathan Spinner, AVP of Claims Transformation and Strategy at Aviva, and Rick Yates, VP of Insurance Programs at Accident Support Services International, will discuss their joint project and place it in the context of each company's innovation activities. Hear about:

  • The value proposition;
  • The project;
  • The results; and
  • What's next.

Accident Support Services International placed as a finalist in last year's Insurance-Canada.ca Technology Awards (‘ICTA’) competition.
