Insurance

Core: Technology projects in the core initiatives category address insurers’ core technology systems, including policy administration, claims, and billing, as well as associated systems, such as rating engines and underwriting workbenches, that may or may not be integral elements of the core platform.
Data and Analytics: Data and analytics projects are fundamentally focused on accessing and using information. While “analytics” in insurance can sometimes be conflated with risk selection (rating, underwriting) or risk management (claims), data and analytics projects can address functional areas across the insurance value chain.
Digital: Insurer technology projects that deal with digital are fundamentally about the access and flow of information through the insurance value chain, from carriers to agents and policyholders or reinsurers. Digital initiatives include a variety of efforts to enable and improve information access and user experience (UX).
IT Practice: The IT Practice category was designed to include initiatives that innovate or improve at the organizational level.
