Streamlining Service Request Creation in Insurance Underwriting

Order creation or service request creation is a crucial step in the underwriting industry. The assessment of any property to perform a risk analysis and quality check to further the process is critical.  At Process-Smart we are committed to providing seamless services to our clients to support the assessment of property in a more efficient and streamlined manner.

The Process of Order Creation

The Process-Smart team is equipped with LC360 (Loss Control 360), a software used for order creation. It can be utilized for client inspection requests that come to us via email or through client portals.  Requests are typically in PDF form and include details such as the survey type, property type, property address, and inspection type.  Any necessary forms needed to complete the inspection are also included.  In order to cater to any client-specific requirements, LC360 has an option titled “Special Attention”.  This allows our client to dictate special requests for additional information that should be gathered during the inspection.

The process also involves creating detailed files of the property. These images are high-definition photos taken through a wide-frame lens from all angles. This is done to ensure that the survey reports correspond with the property inspection.

Importance of Order Creation in the Underwriting Industry

The importance of order creation in the underwriting industry can be summarized as follows:

1- Accurate risk evaluation: 

The service request provides underwriters with all the necessary information about the risk, including its nature, location, and potential impact. This information helps underwriters to accurately evaluate the risk and determine the appropriate coverage and premium.

2- Streamlined underwriting process

Process-Smart helps to streamline the underwriting process by ensuring that all the necessary information is available at the outset. This reduces the need for additional information requests and improves the speed and efficiency of the underwriting process.

3- Risk mitigation

By providing comprehensive information about the risk, the order creation process helps underwriters to identify potential risks and take appropriate measures to mitigate them. This reduces the likelihood of claims and losses and ensures that the underwriting process is sustainable over the long term.

Importance of Creating a Service Request at a Property

Creating service requests is a crucial process in the underwriting industry for a few reasons, especially for a property that is about to undergo a loss control inspection:

  1. Ensuring accuracy: We ensure that the information about the order is accurate and up-to-date. This includes details about the items being ordered, the quantity, and any special instructions or requests. This information is crucial to ensure that the request is fulfilled correctly and that there are no errors or discrepancies.
  2. Streamlining the process: Instead of having to place orders through multiple channels, such as over the phone or online, orders can be placed directly at the property. This can save time and reduce the risk of miscommunication.

Importance of Order Creation for Multiple Clients with Multiple Requirements

Process-Smart can smoothly handle multiple service requests by multiple clients. The details along with high-definition images of the loss inspection process are added in the User Interface along with the report. Through our streamlined process, creating service requests for multiple clients with multiple requirements benefits the insurance underwriting industry in the following ways:

  1. Centralized process: Creating service requests for multiple clients and requirements in a centralized manner allows underwriters to manage and prioritize their workload efficiently. By using a centralized system, they can track the status of each order, ensure that it is being processed within the expected timeframes, and monitor for any bottlenecks in the process.
  2. Consistency: A centralized process also helps to ensure consistency in the underwriting process. By following the same process for each order, regardless of the client or requirements, underwriters can ensure that all orders are being handled fairly and efficiently.
  3. Automation: Automating the process can further streamline underwriting processes. By using software tools that can generate orders automatically based on predefined criteria, underwriters can reduce the time and effort needed to create and process orders manually.
  4. Improved communication: When multiple clients and requirements are involved, clear communication is crucial. A centralized system can help to ensure that all parties are aware of the status of each order, any issues that arise, and any updates or changes that need to be made. This can help to prevent misunderstandings or delays in the process.
  5. Data analytics: A centralized process can also provide valuable data insights into the underwriting process. By tracking and analyzing order data, underwriters can identify trends and patterns that can inform future decision-making and process improvements.

In conclusion, the service request creation with Process-Smart provides numerous benefits such as streamlined efficiency both in insurance underwriting and other various industries. Contact Process-Smart today for more information on how we can work with your business to do the same.
