This post is part of a series sponsored by Selectsys.

In the realm of insurance, outdated legacy rating platforms and reliance on Excel-based systems create significant hurdles for carriers and MGAs. These challenges often manifest in restricted data access, cumbersome maintenance, and inefficient distribution. The SelectsysTech API-driven Rate, Quote & Bind (RQB) Platform, hosted on Azure with auto-scaling capability, offers a transformative solution to these issues. By prioritizing comprehensive data capture and transparency at every stage, this platform seamlessly integrates with IMS and other core systems without the need for additional coding. Moreover, it adeptly manages rating versions and facilitates smooth transitions across multiple rate updates, streamlining operations for carriers and MGAs alike.

The Evolution of Rate, Quote & Bind Processes

Historically, the insurance industry has relied heavily on manual processes and outdated systems, leading to inefficiencies and errors. Legacy systems often lack the flexibility and scalability needed to keep up with the fast-paced demands of modern insurance operations. The SelectsysTech RQB platform addresses these challenges by offering a digital-first approach that automates and enhances the entire rate, quote, and bind process.

Key Features and Benefits of the RQB Platform

• Comprehensive Data Capture and Transparency: One of the primary advantages of the RQB platform is its ability to capture and manage comprehensive data throughout the insurance lifecycle. By ensuring data transparency, the platform enables better-informed decision-making and enhances the overall efficiency of the insurance process. This comprehensive data capture also helps in meeting regulatory requirements and improving risk assessment.

• Seamless Integration: The RQB platform is designed to integrate seamlessly with existing Insurance Management Systems (IMS) and other core systems. This integration does not require additional coding, which significantly reduces the time and resources needed for implementation. As a result, carriers and MGAs can quickly adopt the platform and start experiencing its benefits without major disruptions to their operations.

• Streamlined Operations and Rating Management: Maintaining rating versions and managing multiple rate updates can be challenging with traditional systems. The RQB platform simplifies this process by automating the management of rating versions and facilitating smooth transitions across updates. This leads to increased productivity and cost savings, allowing underwriters and sales teams to focus on more strategic tasks.

Enhancing Sales Efficiency with Turn-key Comparative Rating

For MGAs and wholesalers, navigating the landscape of multiple P&C insurance carriers and integrating third-party services can be daunting tasks that impede sales processes and market entry. The RQB platform offers a turn-key comparative rating solution that integrates with over 30 carriers and supports various third-party services, including Google API, Core Logic, E2Value, Zillow, Verisk, DTC (Distance To Coast), VIN Service, and Address Cloud.

Real-time Comparative Rate, Quote & Bind

The RQB platform’s Single-Entry Multi-Carrier Comparative Rate, Quote & Bind capability allows users to enter data once and receive comparative indications from multiple carriers in real-time. This eliminates the need for re-keying submissions and speeds up the process of obtaining quotes and binding policies. This efficiency not only enhances the sales process but also improves customer satisfaction by providing quicker and more accurate quotes.

Case Study: Transforming Insurance Sales with RQB

Consider a mid-sized MGA struggling with inefficiencies in their sales process due to reliance on outdated systems. By implementing the RQB platform, they were able to integrate their various lines of business and streamline their operations. The platform’s automation capabilities reduced the time required to generate quotes by 50%, allowing their sales team to handle more clients and close deals faster. Additionally, the improved data management provided valuable insights into customer preferences, enabling the MGA to tailor their offerings and improve customer satisfaction.
