FOSTER CITY Calif. , September 02, 2015

Guidewire Software, Inc. (NYSE: GWRE), a provider of software products to Property/Casualty (P/C) insurers, today announced that Texas Windstorm Insurance Association (TWIA) has selected Guidewire ClaimCenter® as its new claims management system, and DataHub to support the implementation. TWIA also selected Guidewire Claim Portal for Policyholders™ and Claim Portal for Agents to enhance the digital experience for users. Additionally, TWIA successfully deployed Guidewire PolicyCenter® and BillingCenter.

“We are pleased that Texas Windstorm has extended its Guidewire selection to include ClaimCenter and two of our Digital Portals,” said Steve Sherry, group vice president, Americas Sales, Guidewire Software. “We also congratulate TWIA on their recent deployment of Guidewire PolicyCenter® and BillingCenter, and look forward to seeing them achieve similar success with their ClaimCenter and Claim Portal deployments.”

Guidewire ClaimCenter® is a leading end-to-end claims management system, built from the ground up to meet the specific needs of today’s Property/Casualty insurers. ClaimCenter’s flexible business rules enable claims organizations to define, enforce, and continually refine their preferred claim handling practices in order to optimize and monitor their claim processes. ClaimCenter is in use by insurers of all sizes across all product lines to improve speed and accuracy, reduce loss adjustment expense, and enable proactive management of claims. ClaimCenter is available as a standalone system or as part of Guidewire InsuranceSuite™, and can be integrated to an insurer’s legacy systems or third party applications.

Guidewire Digital Portals™ is a portfolio of portals that allow insurers to expose Guidewire InsuranceSuite™ functionality to external stakeholders such as policyholders, agents/brokers and vendors through the web and mobile devices. Insurers can extend the value of their Guidewire core system investment to drive new business, increase operational efficiency, and improve customer service through digital channels. Each individual product has been developed to meet a targeted need for a specific user group (e.g. Quote and Buy for Policyholders). The underlying architecture of the products has been designed to directly leverage InsuranceSuite functionality without duplication, enabling quick response to market needs and lowering total cost of ownership, all on a future ready technology.
