Chordiant Software launches new Insurance Industry Initiative
Announcement posted by Chordiant Software 30 Jan 2002
Chordiant Software, Inc a leading enterprise software company for real-time customer interaction solutions, today further solidified its growing leadership in the demand for enterprise customer applications in the insurance market by launching a new Insurance Industry Initiative.
Chordiants Insurance Industry Initiative will bring to market Chordiant's enterprise offerings together with insurance applications and solutions, and create insurance industry alliances with new integration partners and developers.
Chordiant's Insurance Industry Initiative software solutions will deliver specific components and pre-configured processes for the wide range of insurance offerings servicing individual consumers. The Chordiant Insurance Industry Initiative software will be based on the Chordiant JX Architecture (J2EE and XML) and include Chordiant's applications designed for branch, partner, call centre, and back office roles along with self-service Web-based applications.
Using the JX Architecture, the Chordiant Insurance Industry Initiative software will provide an enterprise-wide, consistent view of the customer relationship (Customer Profile, Contact History and Transactions in progress), real-time business process automation, and integration applications to automate customer-centric services, sales and retention processes.
Chordiant's success to date in insurance and financial services is significant. Chordiant has established its marketing, and selling and servicing enterprise software offerings with leading companies such as: ING, BankWest, Allianz, Direct Line Insurance, Signal Induna, MetLife, Standard Life, InsureZone, Advance Bank, Alliance and Leicester, Banco Comercial Portugues, Banca Popolare de Novara, BankWest, Barclaycard, CTAL, Chase Manhattan Bank, CIBC, Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank, DLJDirect, First USA, First Boston, Lloyd's TSB, Chase, Open Bank, Principal Financial, Quick & Reilly, Republic National Bank, Halifax, The Bank of Ireland, and The Royal Bank of Scotland.
Chordiant is uniquely positioned to take advantage of the insurance and financial services industry's desire for proven enterprise software that delivers a complete set of customer interaction applications, insurance industry-specific components and processes, said Ricky Kapur, general manager, Chordiant Software Asia Pacific. "The Chordiant JX Architecture is the only open architecture for customer interaction based on J2EE and provides us with a very competitive advantage in the enterprise market.
Customer demand has dictated that we accelerate our Insurance Industry Initiative offering, combined with delivery partnerships, that we expect will dramatically lower the cost of operation for insurance organisations."
