(July 8, 2015 – Toronto, ON/Des Moines, IA) Risk Control Technologies Inc., the industry-leading provider of loss control software solutions for insurers, today announced that after an extensive search, EMC Insurance Companies (“EMC”) has selected the Risk Control Technologies loss control software system to help streamline loss control processes within the organization and further enhance service to policyholders. Headquartered in Des Moines, Iowa with 16 branch offices throughout the country, EMC is ranked among the top 50 insurers in the United States.
“EMC prides itself on having one of the most sophisticated loss control teams in the insurance industry,” said Bryon Snethen, Vice President of Risk Improvement at EMC, “With this in mind, we conducted an extensive search for a loss prevention system that would meet our needs, and Risk Control Technologies stood out as an excellent fit”.
As part of the selection process, EMC conducted a comprehensive proof-of-concept during which the Risk Control Technologies team configured the system for use by EMC. In addition to using the system in a live environment to test its capabilities, members of the EMC loss control team were also trained in configuration of the loss control solution, which allowed them to set up forms, output templates, standard recommendations and workflow rules throughout the proof-of-concept to assess the flexibility and configurability of the product.
“EMC is a very progressive organization in terms of its loss control initiatives,” said David Da Costa of Risk Control Technologies, “we are pleased to have them on board as a member of our client community and look forward to a long relationship between our organizations.”
