Insurity, Inc. (Hartford) has announced that it has made software updates to Policy Decisions Evolution (PDE) software across all lines of business, from monoline workers’ compensation to sophisticated commercial package (CPP) policies. The new version adds a wide array of new workflow features and enhancements to enable more intuitive, collaborative, and efficient user experiences for insurance carriers and agents, according to the vendor.

Insurity describes PDE as a modern policy administration system that supports the entire policy lifecycle on a unified platform, leveraging the largest API ecosystem in the insurance industry for connecting third-party data and services. Since the first implementation of Policy Decisions Evolution in 2016, over 20 percent of insurers on Policy Decisions have successfully migrated to the newer platform, according to the vendor. Nationwide was among the first to take advantage of the most modern policy administration platform available in the market.

“We upgraded to Policy Decisions Evolution after working closely with Insurity to automate many lines of business including General Liability, Auto, Workers’ Compensation, Umbrella, and Inland Marine from rating to policy issuance,” comments Leigh Hill, process management consultant at Nationwide Agribusiness Insurance Company. “Not only was the implementation delivered quickly with minimal issues, but the improved UI and functionality were highly impactful to our operations. We are also better positioned to increase speed to market and the efficiency of future product upgrades while still maintaining our ability to keep up with the latest regulatory changes.”

The new version of PDE includes, by Insurity’s description:
