Pekin Insurance, an Illinois-based multi-state Property/Casualty insurer, and Guidewire Software, Inc. (NYSE: GWRE), a provider of software products to Property/Casualty (P/C) insurers, today announced that Pekin Insurance has selected Guidewire core processing, data and analytics, and digital engagement products to adapt its business for success in today’s rapidly-changing insurance marketplace. Pekin Insurance is simplifying its infrastructure to reduce system maintenance costs, streamline business processes, and gain the flexibility needed to remain competitive in an evolving market. The selected Guidewire products will be implemented for commercial lines first; personal lines will follow.
Guidewire PartnerConnect™ Premier Consulting alliance member, PwC, will lead the implementation, and Guidewire PartnerConnect Solution and Ready for Guidewire program member, Thunderhead, is providing its Smart Communications solution to create, manage, and deliver all outbound policyholder correspondence.
Pekin Insurance has selected Guidewire InsuranceSuite™ as its new platform for underwriting, rating, policy administration, claims, billing, and client data management.

Guidewire DataHub™ and InfoCenter will support their enterprise-wide data management and business intelligence needs. Additionally, the company will leverage Guidewire Account Management Portal for Policyholders™, Claim Portal for Agents, and Gateway Portal for Agents to enhance the digital experience for its policyholders and agents.
