San Cristóbal Seguros, one of Argentina’s largest insurers, and Guidewire Software, a provider of software products to Property/Casualty insurers, today announced that San Cristóbal has selected Guidewire ClaimCenter as its new claims management system.
As part of a company-wide strategic initiative to replace its core systems and optimize its business processes, San Cristóbal selected ClaimCenter. The company sought a system that will help it streamline and automate its processes, obtain better insight into its claims handling operations, and reduce costs. ClaimCenter will be implemented across all of San Cristóbal’s lines of business and its branch network in Argentina, and the company plans to extend its ClaimCenter implementation to Uruguay once it has been successfully deployed in Argentina.
“One of the key goals of our strategic plan is operational excellence, and in order to achieve this, we must be supported by a solution that leverages the best practices in the market,” said Duilio Montrasi, chief operating officer, San Cristóbal. “We believe that ClaimCenter will provide the established best practices and business processes that will help us to best serve our customers.”
“We look forward to leveraging ClaimCenter’s features and functionality to help us achieve our immediate and long-term goals,” added Gustavo Trias, claims manager, San Cristóbal.
ClaimCenter will enable San Cristóbal to:
Execute best practices, leading to enhanced service for its customers;
Establish efficient common claims handling processes across its organization;
Reduce claim cycle times for increased productivity; and
Improve data analytics and reporting capabilities.
“We welcome San Cristóbal to the Guidewire family as our first customer in Argentina,” said Steve Sherry, group vice president, Americas Sales, Guidewire Software. “We admire their focus on customer service and business process improvements and look forward to helping them achieve their business and IT goals.”
