“Making the submission process easy for agents is a high priority” said John Cunningham, President at Beacon Aviation Insurance Services. “With Appulate’s automation, we are able to use technology to enhance the user experience and make it easier for agents to do business with us,” commented Cunningham.

Appulate offers independent insurance agents technology so that they can bridge data directly from their management systems to make the submission process to key programs easier. By working with Appulate, Beacon will bring its Workers’ Compensation program, that focuses on risks in the aviation industry to the nearly 30,000 independent agencies using Appulate’s platform nationwide.

“Agents using Appulate want to be able to more easily submit to key program administrators,” said Jeff Harris, President at Appulate, Inc. “Beacon has a unique program that serves the Aviation industry and we are pleased to partner with them on their offering” stated Harris.

To access this program, an agent simply needs to have an Appulate account. This is offered free of charge and can be setup within 5 minutes. Once the agent has an account, they will be able to bridge ACORD and other data from their management system to complete the Beacon Aviation online application.

About Appulate, Inc.

The digital age is rapidly changing the way agents quote business with their carriers. Long gone is the fax machine – replaced by mobility and algorithms. Today, agents (and the insureds they represent) demand instant gratification. If business can’t be conducted quickly, customers go elsewhere.

Appulate powers the digital transformation of insurance by bringing together the insured, agent, wholesale broker, MGA and carrier on a single “point of sale” platform designed to expedite the rate, quote and even bind process for property and casualty risks.

Carriers and MGAs use Appulate to not only digitize their products and programs, but further expose them to the more than 30,000 agencies using Appulate today.
