Coconut Creek, Florida, 9/5/2006 — Computer Solutions and Software International,
Inc. (CSSI), today announced that VUE Software®, its commissions and incentive
compensation management solution division, has been selected as a partner in Microsoft’s
Insurance Value Chain (IVC). VUE Software joins with key insurance services providers
developing mission-critical solutions that align with the Microsoft’s experience
Insurance initiative and provide seamless, end-to-end insurance business processing
on the Microsoft platform.
Microsoft established IVC as a technology foundation for integrated partner applications
for the insurance industry. This foundation is based on the Microsoft .NET Framework,
XML Web services and industry standards such as the Agent-Company Organization for
Research and Development (ACORD). Building directly upon IVC, Microsoft’s experience
Insurance initiative offers a comprehensive approach to resolving pressures facing
the insurance industry and focuses on improving the overall experience of customers,
employees and operations.
"We are extremely pleased to be selected as a member of Microsoft’s Insurance
Value Chain. Our product planning and development teams have built our solutions
from the ground up to support industry standards and run on Microsoft technologies
already in place at many insurance companies," said Stephen Bruno, president
and CEO of CSSI. "Companies can more easily integrate IVC Member solutions
and be certain that we’re working closely with Microsoft to continue to drive down
the time and cost of connecting the many disparate systems insurance companies utilize."
Partner solutions address insurance companies’ challenges across every aspect of
the insurance industry, including point-of-sale, policy issuance, service and administration,
claims processing, reinsurance and agent support. VUE Software in particular addresses
all these areas, helping IVC solve the problem of the paper-based, highly fragmented
nature of insurance business processes that limit the industry’s ability to respond
to business challenges.
Companies implementing VUE Software and other Microsoft IVC solutions realize
a number of benefits:
Increased business agility through the alignment of business processes with technology,
coupled with an increased value of existing information technology (IT) investments
Reduced IT cost and complexity due to pre-integration using a standards-based framework
and Web services
Improved insurance experiences resulting from a connected technology infrastructure
that leverages a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) within Microsoft .NET, creating
a seamless link between customer and company for better service and cross-selling
