Tritech launches Web portal for improving document storage

Tritech has just enhanced its enterprise wide solution, GIMS (General Insurance Management System), to include a Web Reporting Portal. Insurers ability to generate data and report on it is increasing by the week, announced Tritech, a Toronto-based firm that has provided enterprise technology solutions to the property and casualty insurance industry for 15 years. What has not necessarily kept up is the secure and efficient storage of it, and ease of retrieval in a structured manner. Tritechs Web Reporting Portal provides the answers to those needs.The Web Reporting Portal is designed to allow the decision-makers at insurance companies the ability to determine who has access to what types of reports, what level of detail, time frames, and whether a report can subsequently be saved (or not) outside of the Portal and/or routed via email.Subject to appropriately authorized access, a user can access their reports from any Internet browser using a unique ID and password, regardless of time or location. Reports in this tool are creating using Microsoft SQL Reporting Services and stored within a Report Content Manager on an insurers servers, Triech explains. The data can be viewed in multiple formats that include PDF, HTML, and Excel. Subject to insurer definition on what variables and how many, data within each report can by hyperlinked to the GIMS database. So, for example, a user could click on a policy number that is hyperlinked, and a separate browser window will open displaying policy details. The type and volume of additional detail provided is also insurer defined.Insurance companies run on an ad hoc basis a high volume of reports across every department, product line, activity or transaction, and teams and individual production on daily, weekly, monthly and quarterly bases. Some of the challenges that exist for insurer staff, managers, and executives are the secure and efficient storage of these reports for business, audit and legal reasons, and the ease of retrieval when required later on, the company noted in a release. The Web Reporting Portal, as an enhancement to the GIMS (General Insurance Management System), is designed to meet such challenges head on.
