The new system is designed to enable Barton and its independent agents to quote and bind new business policies for the crime, glass, BOP, liability and CPP lines of business, with endorsements soon to follow. SpeedBuilder Systems’ BindExpress Product Configurator, BindExpress Rating, and BindExpress Underwriting components power the portal’s once-and-done, straight-through processing using all AAIS rates, rules and forms.
“BindExpress has transformed our commercial lines service,” says Joel Dermott, CIO of Barton Mutual Group. “Agents love the flexibility of getting quotes themselves at any time. Since we now capture all required information up front, our underwriters can focus on reviewing risks and not chasing paper, improving overall efficiency for submissions. It’s a true win-win.”
