Pega is used by insurers to manage business-critical workflow processes, from customer management to underwriting operations through to claim management. Its application programming interface connectivity helps facilitate easy and rapid integration with Radar Live, which allows insurers to inject sophisticated pricing, rules and decision support models rapidly into the Pega system. Models can be developed, scenario tested and deployed rapidly, thereby reducing costs, reducing decision cycle times, and increasing confidence around pricing and business decisions.
“We are thrilled to collaborate with Willis Towers Watson and Radar Live, a best of breed pricing and rules-based engine,” said Kieran Tarrant, vice president sales, U.K. and Ireland, at Pega. “Pega drives efficiency, maximizes effectiveness, crushes complexity and combines the excellence of Radar Live with Pega, a world-leading case management capability, to deliver quality underwriting outcomes for insurers and their customers.”
“We are delighted that Pega has joined our Radar Live collaboration program,” said Andrew Harley, director at Willis Towers Watson. “With data and advanced analytics as the frontiers of change in the insurance sector, companies must migrate their operations to connected, flexible and agile systems capable of creating competitive advantage. Pega’s international success in driving sales, minimizing expenses, helping improve underwriting consistency and maximizing the customer experience will mean this collaboration will drive significant value to our mutual customers across the world.”
According to Willis Towers Watson, new data sources and the accessibility of machine learning algorithms have raised the bar for expected analytics performance and the level of sophistication in automated decision making. At the same time, consumers’ demand for online and mobile insurance quotes, to compare and contrast multiple quotes, and their expectation of fast claim settlements have driven the need for delivering rates and rules to market quickly and accurately.
