Wawanesa to use Guidewire ClaimCentre

The Wawanesa Mutual Insurance Company and Guidewire Software have announced that Wawanesa is in production with Guidewire ClaimCenter, a Web-based claims system built specifically for the property and casualty industry.
Wawanesa announced it is deploying ClaimCenter to manage claims for all its lines of business across its Canadian and U.S. jurisdictions in a phased implementation approach.
ClaimCenter is currently in use in four regions (Manitoba, Ontario, British Columbia, and the United States – including operations in California and Oregon). The remaining jurisdictions – The Maritimes, Quebec, The Prairies and Alberta – are due to roll out late August through the end of 2011.
The company said it is on target to retire its legacy claims systems by the end of 2011.
