PlusOne targets online growth with SSP

9/21/2009

PlusOne, a leading provider of outsourced insurance sales & backoffice administration services, has linked up with SSP to extend its eBusiness proposition, as the importance of the internet channel continues to grow.

Specialising in the delivery of tailored outsourcing solutions for insurance brokers, insurance companies & affinities, PlusOne has invested further in its IT infrastructure as it moves towards full-cycle online trading.

 

PlusOne works with its partners & clients to provide an end-to-end service which includes B2B & B2C websites & telesales, technical underwriting, customer service & claims handling.  These services will be extended using SSP’s S4i & Nexus solutions.  A range of new online services will be rolled-out to policyholders including MTA’s & claims processing. The new services will integrate seamlessly with PlusOne’s existing call centre, increasing business efficiency & improving customer experience.

Bob Bruce, IT director at PlusOne commented: “As we deliver services on behalf of some of the UK's largest & most respected businesses we have to maintain their reputations for exceptional standards of service, which means we have to deliver great products & service consistently. The investment being made by SSP into the S4i policy administration system will allow us to take the services we offer to the next level. As a service provider we have to anticipate & respond quickly to changes in the market, so working with an IT partner with SSP’s market knowledge & experience will ensure we continue to deliver value to our customers.”

Commenting on the development, Andy Watts, director of SSP’s insurer division said: “We are pleased that PlusOne has selected SSP for the next phase of their development, helping them maximise the value of the internet & call centre channels.  With consumers increasingly looking to undertake more & more of their transactions online, ‘quote & buy’ is no longer enough. Technology is key to allowing customers to serve themselves - making adjustments when they need to & logging & monitoring the progress of claims. PlusOne’s continued investment in technology will help them to deliver faster, better quality services to their clients, whilst improving their efficiency.”
