New York City and San Francisco, November 3, 2008 - Bluewolf (www.bluewolf.com) today announced the availability of PolicyTrak, the first SaaS-based insurance solution for end-to-end policy management available via the Force.com AppExchange. PolicyTrak helps insurance companies develop request for proposals (RFPs) for their large enterprise clients, with a solution that mirrors the lifecycle of an insurance policy. Built using the Force.com platform, PolicyTrak streamlines and automates the critical steps involved in developing and collaborating on an RFP. Bluewolf is one of the largest providers of consulting services for Software-as-a-Service, Open Source and Cloud Computing solutions.
Bluewolf made the announcement at salesforce.com's Dreamforce user and developer conference, November 2-5, 2008 at the Moscone Convention Center in San Francisco. Bluewolf PolicyTrak is available immediately via the Force.com AppExchange at http://www.salesforce.com/appexchange, or by contacting Bluewolf at www.bluewolf.com.
For insurance managers, analysts and underwriters, Bluewolf PolicyTrak provides a customizable SaaS solution with a 360-degree view of any policy, along with a framework to manage all aspects of complex insurance policy administration. It delivers a sales-ready structure to generate and move insurance RFPs forward quickly and free of errors. PolicyTrak replaces multiple Excel spreadsheet documents and disparate documents with a single, SaaS solution, enabling multiple sales people and managers to easily collaborate in real time on a RFP.
Bluewolf PolicyTrak manages complex approvals, captive and third party commissions, quoting, group rates calculations, and easily integrates with legacy back-end Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems for easy sharing of data. It also offers complex workflow and validation processes to protect the accuracy of policies, and tracks changes for compliance.
"Bluewolf's extensive experience with insurance companies has provided us with the knowledge it takes to tie these disparate functions together," said Randy Rodriguez, Managing Director, Financial Services Innovation for Bluewolf. "For insurance companies, PolicyTrak provides a quick and easily deployable solution that enables them to immediately reap the benefits of an innovative, SaaS-based solution to meet their policy management requirement needs."
"Bluewolf is a leading salesforce.com consulting partner and has leveraged the Force.com platform to deliver an innovative SaaS solution for the insurance industry," said Clarence So, Chief Marketing Officer, salesforce.com. "The new PolicyTrak solution available on the Force.com AppExchange will help insurance companies generate business success with the SaaS model, instead of having to manage and maintain more software and hardware infrastructure."
