Michigan Association of Insurance Agents Endorses
XDimensional Technologies’ Nexsure®
Unprecedented action by major insurance industry
voice vaults automated agency management system to
national forefront
Brea, CA, November 17, 2003 -- In a move unprecedented by
any statewide insurance association in the U.S, the
Michigan Association of Insurance Agents has exclusively
endorsed the automated insurance agency management
solution Nexsure for its agency members.
The Michigan Association of Insurance Agents (MAIA)
represents approximately 1,300 agencies and 10,000
industry employees.
In a major announcement made last week at its 16th annual
Great Lakes Automation Day (GLAD) at the Kellogg Center in
East Lansing, Mich., MAIA Technology Chair Dave Muma
endorsed Nexsure to its 1,300 member-agencies. Citing
Nexsure’s cutting edge web-based technology that “raises
the bar for agency management systems,” Muma described
MAIA’s comprehensive 2-year analysis of agency management
solutions that culminated in the Technology Committee’s
endorsement of Nexsure. He called Nexsure a sound
investment in cutting-edge technology for its robust
feature set, scalability, superior carrier interface, and
wide range of benefits.
Developed by XDimensional Technologies, Inc. of Brea,
Cal., Nexsure is a state-of-the-art insurance agency
management solution that seamlessly manages the entire
customer life cycle from prospecting to policy marketing,
customer servicing, billing and general ledger. Able to
link insurance agencies regardless of size, from
independent agents to global agencies, with insurance
carriers through the web, Nexsure has been called the
“virtual office of the future” because it can be accessed
from any web-enabled PC anywhere, anytime.
Additionally, Nexsure is also the only agency management
system that takes full advantage of ACORD standards and
the XML data format to allow insured, policy, and agency
information to be quickly and accurately exchanged among
carriers, clients and agents in real time.
XDimensional Technologies president Robert Juracka
demonstrated Nexsure to GLAD attendees in the conference
segment entitled “Getting Under the Hood of Today’s Agency
Management Systems.” Agency information officers were
particularly impressed with Nexsure’s single-solution
approach to managing multiple offices and multiple
insurance lines. They were also pleased that Nexsure is a
fully hosted solution with no hardware or software for the
agency to maintain or upgrade.
With expanded technology services to members a key benefit
of MAIA membership, MAIA organizes its annual Great Lakes
Automation Day to provide its member agencies with
information vital to gaining a competitive edge through
the efficiencies and cost-savings gained through
technology. Last week’s MAIA’s GLAD conference entitled “A
Test Drive on the Automation Highway,” featured a panel
comparing competitive agency management systems. Muma’s
comments announcing the Nexsure endorsement followed.
Muma also announced that as an additional value-added
benefit to its agency members, MAIA has secured preferred
pricing of the Nexsure system for its member agencies
through an exclusive arrangement with XDimensional
Technologies, Inc.
Following last week’s GLAD announcement XDimensional
Technologies president Robert Juracka commented, “We are
enormously gratified for Nexsure to have received this
endorsement which is unprecedented by any state insurance
association in the country. The mark of approval by a
major insurance industry voice such as MAIA solidifies
Nexsure’s leadership position in the agency automation
market today.”
Juracka also pointed out the MAIA’s announcement is the
latest of recent major endorsements by a growing list of
highly prestigious insurance carriers, agencies, and
organizations nationwide. “XDimensional’s strong
commitment to becoming the industry leader in providing
state-of-the-art agency management solutions has clearly
vaulted Nexsure to the head of the pack.”
Following the GLAD conference, MAIA will continue to
promote Nexsure to its member base in newsletters, on-site
visits, member events, and telesales activities.
