FULCRUM LAUNCHES CERTIFICATE AUTOMATION, DOUBLING THE TIME ITS PLATFORM GIVES BACK TO ACCOUNT MANAGERS
Fulcrum launched a certificate automation workflow that returns an endorsement-ready certificate from an emailed request in under a minute, built on policy data the platform already uses for policy checking and proposals.
The workflow compares requested coverage against what the client actually carries, flags unsatisfiable requests, and auto-pulls supporting endorsement forms, with account managers reviewing every certificate before it issues.
The company says the launch is its largest single time-savings gain to date, doubling the time the platform gives back to account managers, and is used by nearly half of the top 50 U.S. insurance brokerages executing more than 2,500 hours of servicing work daily.
