WALTHAM, Mass. & FOSTER CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 10, 2017-- Guidewire Software, Inc. (NYSE: GWRE), a provider of software products to Property and Casualty (P&C) insurers, today announced that Athenium, Inc., a provider of insurance QA audit solutions for claims and underwriting, has joined the Guidewire PartnerConnect™ program as a Solution partner.

Athenium’s Ready for Guidewire accelerator supports insurers by enabling time saving pre-integrated connectivity to teamthink for the following capabilities:

  • Makes Guidewire ClaimCenter data available in teamthink for use in selecting and assigning files for QA review, prefilling responses for reviewers and providing a richer set of data for analytics;
  • Shows teamthink QA review assignments and action items in ClaimCenter; and
  • Provides access to teamthink through ClaimCenter without needing to log in to teamthink separately.

Athenium is now eligible to use the Ready for Guidewire validation mark. This designates that the teamthink accelerator has been through a rigorous review process that supports readiness for integration with Guidewire InsuranceSuite™ products.
