Underwriting transformation made simple: fast, flexible, future-ready

Virtusa + InsureMO, Powered by ServiceNow

 

Why does modernizing your policy administration system feel impossible?

For most property and casualty (P&C) insurers, modernizing underwriting feels like an impossible choice. Legacy systems struggle to keep pace with market demands. Complicated workflows slow underwriting decisions, outdated user interfaces frustrate staff, and rigid architectures make launching new products a months-long ordeal instead of a competitive advantage.

Most carriers find themselves caught between two extremes:

Option 1: Stand still

Rely on legacy mainframes or rigid COTS platforms. They protect decades of business logic but trap you in outdated workflows, poor user experiences, and painfully slow product development cycles.

 

Option 2: Start over 
 

Attempt a complete "rip-and-replace" project that demands millions in capital, multi-year commitments, and massive organizational disruption with no guarantee of success. What do you choose? Stagnation or chaos?

A smarter third option:
Modernize at your pace 

Virtusa and InsureMO have developed an underwriting accelerator built on ServiceNow that handles core policy transactions, namely, quote, bind, issue, endorse, without replacing your legacy system.

This approach lets you:

  • Process policy transactions through modern workflows while your existing system remains in place. 
  • Accelerate implementation with pre-built accelerators for RQBI (rate, quote, bind, issue). 
  • Add capabilities as needed, such as an underwriting workbench and AI for triage and decision workflows, when you are ready. 

Keep your existing policy data and business rules, while adding modern transaction processing and workflow capabilities. Expand functionality over time based on business priorities rather than a rigid, all-or-nothing timeline.
