The Innovation Group, a provider of business process outsourcing (BPO) and software solutions to the insurance, fleet, automotive and property industries, releases Insurer Configurator, a new component of the Innovation Insurer suite.

Insurer Configurator is a suite of programs and services, along with a configuration toolset, that allows insurers to create, maintain, support, and control the deployment of configuration information for the Innovation Insurer suite of products. Insurer Configurator is backward compatible, enabling the decoupling of business logic from insurance applications, thereby significantly reducing deployment time through extensive use of inheritance.

"Insurer Configurator is a critical component of the Innovation Insurer suite, breaking legacy history with a robust, 'built for change' set of tools that will enable agility and flexibility across a wide array of areas, shifting control and work from IT to the business and providing configuration to eliminate the need for customization," says Andy Roberts, CEO of Innovation Group. "Insurer Configurator is a key element in our 'Rule of One' design, providing a single data model, rules engine, process engine, and configuration toolset. More importantly, it will help facilitate transition from older versions of Insurer while providing immediate business value."
