Mountain West Farm Bureau Mutual Insurance, a Wyoming-based multi-line insurer, and Guidewire Software, Inc. (NYSE: GWRE), a provider of software products to Property/Casualty (P/C) insurers, today announced that Mountain West Farm Bureau has selected Guidewire core operations, data and analytics, and digital engagement products to adapt its business for success in today’s rapidly-changing insurance marketplace.
The company is looking to modernize its core system infrastructure and operations in order to reduce system maintenance costs, streamline business processes, and gain the flexibility needed to better address the evolving needs of its agents and customers. BillingCenter will be implemented across all of Mountain West’s lines of business first, followed by ClaimCenter. PolicyCenter will be the final stage in the core system transformation, to be rolled out by line of business in each state where the company does business. Guidewire PartnerConnect™ Consulting member, PwC US, is leading the implementation, with MVP Advisory Group providing advisory services.
Mountain West Farm Bureau has selected Guidewire InsuranceSuite™ along with Guidewire Client Data Management™, Rating Management, Reinsurance Management, and Business Intelligence for InsuranceSuite as its new platform for underwriting, rating, policy administration, reinsurance, billing, claims, client data management, and business intelligence. The company will also leverage Guidewire Quote and Buy Portal for Policyholders™, Account Management Portal for Policyholders, and Claim Portal for Vendors to enhance the digital experience for its policyholders and vendors.
