Philadelphia Insurance Companies Selects and Launches Commercial Automobile Compliance Software from FergTech
Website Provides 24/7 Service to Obtain and Maintain Compliant Auto ID Cards
BALA CYNWYD, Pa., and DARIEN, Conn., April 29 -- Philadelphia Insurance Companies announced today the launch of AutoIDweb, a new service on its AccessPHLY Agent Web Portal. AutoIDweb provides agents access to their commercial auto policies with the ability to add/delete vehicles and print compliant Auto ID Cards in real-time. Agents can also search for policies, batch import vehicles, email confirmations and Auto ID Cards, and check the underwriting status of policy changes they have requested.
"Our implementation of AutoIDweb will save our agents time and allow them to provide insureds with the highest level of customer service," said Sean Sweeney, Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer of Philadelphia Insurance Companies. "Further, we'll be able to provide more timely and accurate electronic Automobile Liability Insurance Reporting (ALIR) to state agencies, which will save insureds from potential delays or registration suspensions."
AutoIDweb uses data-validation rules and data-entry utilities including Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) decoding. As a result, data is entered or imported to AutoIDweb quickly and completely. Having richer information at an earlier time allows PHLY to streamline its ALIR compliance reporting responsibility, resulting in greater accuracy and fewer errors.
"PHLY recognized that AutoIDweb could streamline vehicle endorsements for agents, carriers, and insureds by gathering the correct data from the start, producing the necessary Auto ID Cards, and immediately feeding the appropriate information to state electronic reporting systems," said Bruce Ferguson, President, FergTech, Inc. "With its implementation of AutoIDweb, Philadelphia Insurance Companies has taken a giant step toward containing the rising costs and increasing complexity associated with accurately complying with state automobile financial responsibility laws."
AutoIDweb is Web-service based software that utilizes eXtensible Markup Language (XML) standards and Microsoft .NET technology for ease of implementation and integration with existing company systems. AutoIDweb integrates with existing policy management software at PHLY providing a flexible Web front-end for policy administration functions. AutoIDweb contains compliance rules and forms for creating Auto ID Cards for all states in the USA.
PHLY Preferred Agents can access AutoIDweb through the www.AccessPHLY.com Agent Portal.
