Intact takes new step in business intelligence capabilities

Canadian insurance giant Intact Financial has taken a new step in its analytics capabilities and its implementation of FellowDSS Accelerator business intelligence tool.

The company has acquired the FellowDSS Framework version, which will provide it with access to intellectual property functionalities, explained InEdge, the business analytics company behind the product.

“The FellowDSS application will be a great addition that will support our analytical capabilities,” Denis Pouliot, vice president of applications development at Intact noted. “By leveraging and customizing the FellowDSS platform, we will improve our ability to manage an ever increasing volume of complex data and accelerate the deployment of our analytical solutions.”

FellowDSS Accelerator is a business intelligence package for insurance companies that integrates technical elements and industry-specific business content. It is built around an integrated data warehouse that stores transactional data from a company’s operational support systems and consolidates and integrates data from across the various systems of a company, and makes the data easy to analyze through pre-defined or ad-hoc reports.
