January 13, 2009 – Conyers, GA and Naperville, IL – ImageRight, provider of the insurance industry’s leading content management and workflow system, and INSTEC, a leading provider of comprehensive “best-of-breed” commercial lines rating and policy issuance software, are pleased to announce the companies have formed a strategic partnership to provide better integrated services to new insurance customers as well as existing ImageRight and INSTEC clients.
In an industry as risk-averse as insurance, partnerships and alliances between vendor companies providing best-of-breed or point solutions is important to combat ever-present concerns about security, integration and compliance. Partnerships, like the ImageRight-INSTEC alliance, reinforce the concept that best-of-breed vendors can successfully combine both talents and offerings through adherence to industry standards and procedures.
“ImageRight provides a superior content management solution and well-organized workflow,” said Pat Walsh, vice president for INSTEC. “The collaboration with INSTEC’s policy administration software is a business and technology pairing that has great value to our customers and the industry at large. This partnership not only results in enhanced productivity for our clients, but going forward it will reduce the frustrations and conflicts that typically occur from disjointed business processes.”
ImageRight works closely with policy, rating, claims and other core administration system providers, such as INSTEC, to develop pre-built interfaces which help alleviate the stress often related to the cumbersome process of making existing systems truly work together. The ImageRight-INSTEC alliance enhances the solutions portfolio for both companies and better positions them to effectively and efficiently serve the insurance industry.
“ImageRight continues to invest in R&D efforts to improve our core offering and to partner with other leading technology providers who add value to their clients and to the insurance industry at large,” said Bob Helvey, channel manager for ImageRight. “We are very pleased to now include INSTEC as a part of the ImageRight extended business alliance family.”
