Saint-Christophe Assurances (Paris) has deployed Guidewire Software’s (, (Foster City, Calif.) ClaimCenter as its new claims management system. The French mutual insurer, which sought to find a replacement for its legacy claims system, chose the ClaimCenter for its comprehensiveness and flexibility. The Guidewire solution was delivered in three stages, (across commercial and personal lines) to the insurer’s Liability, Property, and Motor lines of business. The insurer undertook deployment progressively to accommodate business and IT requirements, according to a Guidewire statement.
