Are You Ready for an Underwriting Workbench? 4 Signs You’re Ready to Implement Now
A commercial property and casualty P&C insurance carrier’s sustainability and long-term success is best determined not only by their approach to solving today’s problems, but how poised they are for adaptation and future growth.
Underwriting workbenches are a powerful and effective solution to solving some of today’s top underwriting issues, but how they align to an organization’s existing processes, technologies and long-term goals will ultimately determine their success and lasting power.
For underwriting teams and commercial insurance organizations as a whole, there are some not-so-subtle signals that your underwriters could be ready for an underwriting workbench now and for many years into the future.
Take a look below to see how these four signs show up across the people, processes and technology within your organization:
- Underwriting team members are forced to toggle between multiple systems to evaluate a single risk, losing valuable time that could be used working on other higher-value submissions
- Critical data is manually rekeyed or copy-pasted across tools, rather than being automatically and consistently captured, losing efficiency and productivity
- Documents such as PDFs, loss runs and emails, etc. are driving most underwriting decisions but are fragmented, manually processed files and hard to operationalize
- Quote and bind turnaround times are inconsistent or slipping, resulting in missed opportunities and losing business for your organization
