Guidewire Software Announces Enhanced Business Intelligence Functionality and Reporting for Property/Casualty Insurers
New executive dashboards and reporting capabilities make operational data more actionable
Timely high-quality data is an absolute must for the modern insurance company. For this reason, many insurers have implemented modern core systems. Modern core systems generate higher quality data than their legacy counterparts. But data generation is only half the problem. Getting the right data into the hands of the right users at the right time, to help guide their daily decisions, is a key requirement of successful business transformation. Many insurers today still rely heavily on static reports to provide them with needed business insight. These reports are produced infrequently, are typically based on after-the-fact data, and have a heavy dependency on IT for their delivery. They also tend to include little if any data visualization options, and often require manual manipulation or interpretation for executive use; limiting their effective value.
“Guidewire InfoCenter brings the right core system data, which is
useful in the moment and optimized for specific decisions, to insurers
when and how they want it,” said
About Guidewire DataHub and InfoCenter
Guidewire DataHub™ is an operational data store that unifies, standardizes, and stores data from the typical patchwork of an insurer’s systems as well as from external sources. This provides the single source of truth to feed core systems, business intelligence solutions, and downstream systems such as general ledger, regulatory, and tax reporting. DataHub decouples data consumption from data production, thus insulating downstream data consumers from changes in the behavior and configuration of upstream data producers. With DataHub, insurers can more easily retire legacy systems, ensure business continuity during core system transformation, and add new applications in the future.
Guidewire InfoCenter™ is a business intelligence warehouse optimized for the Property/Casualty industry to provide information in easy to use formats for business intelligence, analysis, and enhanced decision making. Pre-integration with Guidewire products significantly reduces implementation time, risk and maintenance overhead, allowing customers to focus on configuration for their unique needs. InfoCenter is pre-integrated with IBM® Cognos® Business Intelligence and is compatible with other industry-standard BI tools.
