COI Comply helps businesses verify their vendor partners have the right coverage.
CAMDEN, NJ (February 28, 2022) – Conner Strong & Buckelew, a leading insurance brokerage and employee benefits consulting firm, introduces COI Comply, powered by Trustlayer, to provide clients access to an AI-powered collaborative risk management solution.
This tech-forward solution will enable clients to better manage the administrative burden associated with proof of insurance verification. By automating a largely manual process, clients stand to improve compliance, reduce risk, and ultimately deploy resources more optimally.
“We’re excited about the potential of this innovative technology,” said Terrence Tracy, Senior Partner, National Insurtech Practice Leader. “The ability to help our clients automate the management and verification of Certificates of Insurance (COI) with AI and machine learning, in addition to streamline their compliance processes, will help them achieve compliance faster and with less hassle.”
Virtually every business struggles with insurance verification. For those who do it well, the administrative burden is high — with manual processes and over 200,000 static documents changing hands daily across the U.S. For those who don’t, the risk is astronomical, with studies showing that 75 percent of U.S. businesses are underinsured.
“By extending these next-gen insurance compliance capabilities, Conner Strong demonstrates the innovative solutions and value they bring to their clients,” said John Fohr, Co-Founder and CEO of TrustLayer. “This commitment to innovation is what drew us to a strategic partnership with Conner Strong. We are thrilled to be able to help Conner Strong continue to strive for excellence for their clients.”
Conner Strong & Buckelew is among America’s largest insurance, risk management and employee benefits brokerage firms. The introduction of COI Comply, powered by Trustlayer, allows Conner Strong to leverage innovative technology across all its industry practice groups including Construction, Life Sciences, Employee Benefits, Manufacturing, Real Estate, and others.
