Insurance companies that want to compete in today's ever-increasing competitive marketplace realize the extremely crucial need to eliminate quotes with premium errors and streamline application and policy processing.

NetRate's
ACCESS onLine Rating and Application Service provides companies a convenient, intuitive, and accurate method of receiving insurance quotes. The accurately rated and completely edited quote can be automatically transferred to the company's policy systems for integration and processing.

The Netrate ACCESS onLine Rating and Application Service gives users with Microsoft Windows or a Web browser direct access via the NetRate service to company specific rating programs that are available regardless of the location of various company back-end systems, whether they are Mainframe, Client/Server or Web based. Authorized users can input client specific information and immediately access real-time company specific rates for up-to-date, accurate premium quotes. The data can then be integrated with ACORD applications and/or Company specific applications for completion of application information and submitted directly to the company's policy processing systems.

Background

The NetRate rating system is a distributed, object-oriented architecture designed to be a flexible, standards-based, open system easily integrated in whole or in part with property and casualty insurance applications and can also be used as a stand alone, end-to-end rating, quoting, storage and retrieval system.

Platform
The NetRate services run on current Windows Server platforms. Through COM and web services/XML interfaces, these services can be called by, or communicate with, applications on any platform, in any location, written in any language. As distributed components, these services may be run on a single system, or distributed among many systems. The web services architecture enables load balancing, scalability, and fail over functionality, allowing the NetRate system to scale from a single user to an enterprise.

Services
The NetRate services fall into three categories:
· User Interface/Editing Services,
· Validation/Calculation Services, and,
· Storage Services.

User Interface / Editing Services
User Interface services include Windows and Web browser based entry screens as well as external interfaces via COM or web services/XML to the user interface data store, allowing third parties to use specific company and line of business data to produce their own rating user interface.

Validation / Calculation Services
Validation and Calculation services provide full underwriting and rating capability that can be tailored to company-specific needs.

Storage Services
Storage Services provides persistent quote storage and retrieval services. Third parties may access NetRate's data store directly or via the XML interface.
